    In player settings | Other Settings | Virtual Reality SKS | Daydream there are two icons available for the daydream home screen parallax effect. I'm seeing some strange behavior with these images with respect to cropping and stretching. What is the expected size and aspect ratio for these icons and does it matter if they are sprites or textures?

    These icons are expected to be 512x512. If they are not then we will scale them to that size. I believe best practice would be to use a texture.

    The tile's are not actually 1:1 aspect when viewed in daydream home. When I put in a 512x512 image, it seems to crop into the top of the images in some weird way. Is this what I should be expecting?
