Hello dear makecoders of the world, I need some help…  
The grid/background of most ways to make assets is gone (Ex. Tilemap editor and sprite / animation editor) I would like to know what is going on with the editors and some ways to solve it.

Hi!  
This happens a bit to me too, and I’m not really sure what it is. I think it’s just a texture issue, and, if it helps, refreshing the page usually gets rid of minor issues like this; I’d always refresh the page first when encountering glitches like these.

Welcome to the forum!
