Bug: When using a BG in the editor you can select other things. So you arent able to deselect the image again. You have to close the level and open it again to continue editing the level

Are you talking about the BG thing in the Level editor? (The drop down with set, remove, and move BG options)

Yep that's it. It's broken because the "edition modes" were removed, which were previously used to switch back and forth between editing blocks, entrances, views, etc. So when you switch to the background edition mode, there is no way to switch back to the standard edition mode anymore.

I think we should just remove the background viewing altogether. Does anyone actually use it?

Maybe we should leave it in because since we can't view the actual level's BG, people can use it to show the BG that will be showed on the DS itself, so people don't have to launch an emulator to see the BG.

I guess it does have a purpose then . Anyone have any suggestions of a better way to handle this feature?

A dialog box to set the background so you can have an image preview and tell the purpose of it perhaps?

Yes, but the problem is that dragging the background requires the use of an edition mode that I mentioned before. I'm thinking we just add another item to the menu that says "disable background moving" or something like that.

Maybe two checkboxed for "Repeat horizontally" and one for "Repeat vertically"

The "good" solution would be turning the BG into yet another level item, so we don't even need multiple edition modes.

This bug is still here, and it's a silly thing that should be easy to fix.
Maybe turn the "Move BG" menu button into a checkbox, when unchecking it it goes back to normal edition mode.

We could treat a BG as a levelitem. This way we can easily add as much as we want to the level and move them.
Also there should be a BG Edition mode in the tab panel. There you can add, move and probably resize other BGs.
