Auto Atlas warning: The Image asset in the atlas has been directly used by other asset

Hello,

I am using Cocos Creator 3.8.8 and I get many warnings like this:

Warn: [Assets] The Image asset(ade0a908-811e-4193-bc7b-2f69bcf20253 ) in the atlas has been directly used by other asset (58e7f6e4-66cf-44f5-9642-d0fa22e3859f ). The original asset and the new combined image asset will be generated at the same time. We recommended you to move the current image asset out of the folder of atlas.

I understand that this probably means an image inside an Auto Atlas is also referenced directly as an ImageAsset or Texture2D somewhere else.

But I packed the images in the Auto Atlas file as you can see here. But I only can select the image outside the atlas even if I select the Sprite Atlas.

I dont get it

Thank you!
