  • Step 5: Adjust the Size and Position of the Lottie Brick

    Since Lottie animations are vector-based, they will not lose quality regardless of scaling.
    However, using too many or scaling them too large may affect display performance.
    Always save your changes and check the results on the display device after adjusting size and quantity.
