Sprite Atlas won't rotate sprite

    I've got a 4K sprite atlas and 9 2880x543 sprites I'd like to pack. There's certainly enough room to pack all nine, but for some reason, with tight packing, rotation, and padding==2, the Sprite Atlas arranges the sprites so that only 7 of them fit.

    They're stacked going from the top left corner down to the bottom left.

    Any reason why this is happening?

    By design, sprites are rotated only in 90 degree steps when packed to Atlases. This ensures that there are no rendering artifacts especially when using Tight-mesh Sprites or Pixel Perfect games.

    Oh interesting! Well I would have expected a 90 degree turn of two of those 2880x543 sprites to do the trick. They'd only need to be rotated 90 degrees to have them fit in the side of the 4096x4096 texture that's not taken up by the other 7 sprites. But maybe I'm not understanding.
