As an addition I was going to advise not to open b32 campaign files with older versions but you can't do it anyway (tested this). Campaign file doesn't get corrupted or nothing scary happens. So this is not an advice, but a notice :)
Thanks :D

Another Bug:

For some reason if you multi-select a lot of background and object tokens and try to move them, MT won't let you.

If it's what I'm thinking, it's associated with the "click and drag" issue where you can't select something and then click and drag it, but you can click and drag it if you don't select it first.

When dealing with multiple objects selected. Shift-click to deselect an item, then shift-click and drag the same item, which will also move all the other items.

Can we get rid of the full path in the title bar next build? Or at least make it an option? It's butt-ugly.

Sorry but I just don't see the point to having it there. :?

* MapTool remembers where I last saved/loaded a campaign file.
* I remember where my campaign files are kept.
* I have never needed to know what the path to a campaign file was during play.

Maybe that info could be added to the Campaign Properties dialog somewhere instead.

For the record I prefer no path in the title bar as well.

Actually I added that feature for my use only while overhauling macro button panels. I was constantly switching between campaigns and sometimes I lost track which campaign was open. Then I said why not release it.

Path is kinda unnecessary, I give you that. What do you think about displaying campaign name only instead of full path?

I'm completely good with that as long as you strip off the extension. :wink:

Though now I'll have to give more meaningful names instead of part1, part2, part3, etc.. :lol:

When I run the .jar file for this version, it says I only have 63 mb of ram, which is just stupid because I have 2 gb. When I use one of the batch files to launch it with 1gb memory, it opens a dos command window that I can't close. Is there something I can edit to make it run without that command window?

I save all my Campaign Files to DropBox. Not only can I access a campaign file from pretty much any OS that will run Maptool(Win,OSX, linux), but each file is versioned, so if something goes crazy wild, I can always roll back to a previous version of the same file.

Get your Dropbox 2GB via my referral link, and as a bonus, I get an extra 250 MB of space. Even if you don't don't use my link, I still enthusiastically recommend Dropbox..
