Apologies if this has already been asked for but I don't remember seeing it...
In the editor, when you move the mouse over a tile, of course it shows all that tile's contents in the section to the left of the screen. However, if there's a lot of stuff on a tile then you have to scroll down in that left-hand box to see them all. But to do that you need to move the mouse into the box. But if you move the mouse off the tile, the info on the left disappears. Is there some way to make this a bit more ermm...thingy...

You can already use the arrow keys - these are there to solve exactly the problem you describe!

In fact, when you start up the editor, it tells you this on the very first screen you see :wink:

You know, I can't believe I never saw that one either! Although I did find a way around this by right clicking on the tile in question and whilst the 'Cut, Copy, Paste...' window is open, move the scroll bar. The CCP window seems to 'freeze' whatever is in the tile contents window until it is closed. ie you click somewhere else
