>Summary: Editor: Make select useful with Way Points

Initial Comment:
When in waypoint mode/tab, the selection tool doesnt work (a weird popup shows up instead)

It's not self evident why this is happening since logically selecting an obstacle and eg adding a lable should not interfere with waypoints at all (since you cant select them, only place them with the placement tool).

Most of this is probably an RFE, but the popup created is very hard to break lose from and is thus down right a PIA when you might have several unsaved changes and dont just want to kill the game.

Recently we had hakzsam make select on floortiles be pretty decent.
Morphing request to show only WPs (and possibly items) are left.

Currently the selecttool for Waypoints and Floor tiles doesnt really do
anything useful. It would be nice if it did. :)

Eg floor layouts could be selectable and moved/copied to a new location.

Same with waypoints and their connections (of course, connections to WPs
outside the selected area probably needs to be cut).

Hi,

rev. 2264 makes things work as expected.

However, waypoint and floor tile selection are currently useless.
You might want to open an RFE asking for the removal or improvement of
those "features".

Hi,

the select tool is intended to select the currently selected object type.

So if you are in an obstacle tab, it will select obstacles. If you are in
a floor tiles tab, it will select floor tiles (yes, it works, but you can
do nothing with the selected floor tiles). If you are in a waypoints tab...
it will not select waypoints. Hence the popup which indeed does not work
well.
