Level Editor Help

[cbk1994]

I have a question; in GUI's, how do you select tiles to use? I can't figure out how you would detect when they click inside, where they click inside, and what tiles they are selcting ...

Any help is appreciated!

Nevermind, I think I figured it out. My next question is ... is it possible to do a showpoly like thing to make a box around the selected tiles, like the offline editor does?

You could try an image GUI, but instead of image="xyz"; do poly={}; and see of that works. As for for detecting which tiles are selected, check out my thread in this section on translating pics1 to tiles[x,y] and vice-versa.
