Unable to delete or rename regions, points, start locations, etc

Hey there,

Long-time Warcraft III map-maker just taking a dive into Galaxy. Looks like I've got my work cut out for me. One thing I've noticed (and can't seem to find an answer to on the internet) is that I cannot rename or delete regions, points, start locations, sounds, etc. The options are there, but they're grayed out and I can't select them. I can only delete them using CTRL+Z (that's if I just created them, though). Check out my screenshot. Thanks in advance guys. I'm using Windows 8.1 x64.

I was able to fix this problem by clicking Layer > Select From, and checking-off regions, etc.

I do stuff and thingies... Try widening and reducing the number of small nooks and crannies to correct the problem.

I can recommend using "active layer only" in the selection settings unless you want to copy objects from different layers at once.

But it is really weird that the clear-action is grayed out within the list. I can't seem to recreate it.

Btw, you can use hotkeys instead of using the list:
- 'Enter' for the property window for the selected objects
- 'Delete' to delete the selected objects

Also, 'Space' allows you to switch easily between selection and the placement/creation mode.

Last but not least, you can merge selected regions via 'Numpad 0'.

O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- below the minimap should be a thing that says "Overlay Settings" with a little + button in the corner, press the + to expand it, uncheck Use Defaults, then change "Tile Overlay" to "Height"

Sylph-Of-Space -- It would be so so so nice if SCMDraft had some kind of dedicated "walkability" view for the tilesets.
