Room Editor: "Select from Any Layer" toggles off when accidentally selecting something on a tile layer #6924

Open nullbunny opened 4 months ago

Description

My room setup: Multiple tile layers, asset layers and instance layers.

With "Select from Any Layer" toggled on I can click on and manipulate instances and sprite assets as usualy.

But when I deselect an instance by clicking past an instance the following happens:

  1. The option "Select from Any Layer" switches off
  2. The tile layer gets selected
  3. The editor immediately starts drawing with the tile I clicked on, the exact moment I click on it.

I don't know if the new behavior of working with tile layers is intended. If it is, it would be better to make it a separate tool in my opinion, because when I use this option I am thinking about placeable things like objects and sprites and I don't want to draw tiles whenever I misclick.

Steps To Reproduce

  1. Setup a room with multiple tile layers and instance layers.
  2. Fill them up
  3. With "Select from Any Layer" toggled on, click on instances
  4. Click past an instance and on a tile layer and see the following happening: 4.1 The option "Select from Any Layer" toggles off. 4.2 You immediately start drawing on the tile layer.
