[1.4] Maps only posting as tokens
So I create a new map, select the background layer, and drop a map on it. It automatically comes out as a token and is only the size of one grid space. I have to right click it, select change to background, and then resize it to free size. I am definitely on the background layer when I initially put the map on but MT doesn't seem to know that.

I can't seem to replicate the problem.
However, if you are dropping a map into the background layer, have you tried editing the map properties and selecting the map via the "Map" button?

I can't duplicate the problem either, but if I'm on the token layer of a map then select the drawing tools and select the background layer then drop an image on the map, it goes to the token layer.Farland wrote:So I create a new map, select the background layer, and drop a map on it.

The map and draw tools use the same selection tool for the layers, but are actually different.
