Steps to reproduce:

Actual:
All previews are black, and there is no layer selection available

Reading from multi layer texture is a bit complex since there is no direct API doing this, you will need a to create a framebuffer, attach a single layer texture to it, draw one layer of the texture 2d array to the framebuffer, and read from the single layer texture with readPixels.

That could be a feature request for sure. Having a listbox to select which texture ID to render

Feel free to move it but before this implemented, maybe there should be some notice like “Preview texture array not supported yet” instead.

That sounds like a good plan (wanna give it a try?)
