I agree ditus. I did not mean for my question to turn into a debate or flameware regarding the merits of the SceneEditor.
Where it the code for this new version. Or is this just a preview?
and again stop! im new into programming and i will post that code when its done! im just working on it for few hours, so there just max 5% done!
Ok that is all I was asking. No need to get upset.
so a life sign from me

Thanks for the grid, it’s helping me quickly prototype the modules I need for a grid based game.
I MUST be doing something wrongly. Becasue I have copied and pasted all your post >py files. I have corrected the names so that the upper case/lower case is correct in the names and sill all I get is the grid on a grey background. No buttons,not arrows nothing.
thats true, the rest of the code is not public at the moment 
when the tool is ready i will upload the code here…
Ok thanks ditus. I thought I had done something wrong when sintalling the code.
