TxManager

Fallback path
By Defaultdefault, the .tex file will be written in the same directory as the source image file.  If this directory is not writable, the texture manager will write to the fallback directory instead.

Tex Extension
The texture manager will not convert any file with one of these extensions and will be sued used as-is.  Entries should be space-delimited

Workers
The number of txmake processes to launch in parallel.  The default is 2 (assuming you have a typical 4-core machine).  You can increase this number only if you have more than 8 physical cores.

Always Fallback
If this is on, we will only use the directory specified in the Fallback path option.

Keep extension
If on, keep the original extension of the input image

Show Advanced
If on, show advanced settings during the conversion processin the Texture Manager panel.
