Could you make it so you are able to choose different ROM after opening one on startup. (Like an "Open Rom" button?).

Due to the way the editor is coded, this isn't a nice idea.
The editor keeps a lot of global variables with stuff from the ROM. Opening a new ROM means all these have to be updated. Also, what about opened files? They will keep referencing the old ROM, and the editor will crash when saving them because the old ROM is closed. We'd have to keep a list of all the opened files, and all the opened windows, and blargh. Also there was a button like that some time ago, I removed it because all those reasons above. tldr: it would cause lots of bugs and it isn't worth the effort. |

But can't you fix all those bugs?

Doesn't actually do anything.

I think a simpler solution would be to just open another instance of the editor. I assume you're wanting to go back and forth between two different ROMs?

Yeah, open two instances then.
You can use MDI if you don't want craploads of windows floating around and confusing you. |
