Effects and Properties Breakdown
The AllIn1SpriteShader has a custom Material Inspector that allows you to activate and deactivate effects. When an effect is activated it displays it’s properties so that they can be modified:
This is the custom Material Inspector. In this image we can see that the Fade effect is activated and all its properties.
Also note that there is an “R” button next to each property. This button will reset the property to its default value set in the shader. Feel free to change these default values in the shader if you need to.
Keep in mind that there’s an example of every effect on the Demo scene.
Down below all the shader properties are explained. In between [] (ex:[GLOW_ON]) you can find the shader keyword name of each effect (see How to Enable/Disable Effects at Runtime section to see how to use it). In between () (ex: _MainTex) you can find the shader property names in case you want to modify them in a script (see Scripting section).
