I want to use shader to draw circle on spine animation (result of animtion after render) without using texture renderer, but in shader uv0 it calculates on atlas so the result is not as expected. Can anyone help me?

Simply, the Inner Sprite Outline shader is drawn “inside” the sprite, while “Outer” is the opposite. Oh hey almost three years ago I released a plugin called “ Text Animator for Unity ”, a tool I made/needed for my own games - and Today it is also getting used in other games like “ Cult of The Lamb ”, “ Slime Rancher 2 ” and many more!!
