Hello there, I’m a new user of Defold, I started very recently and have several ‘first approach’ questions so forgive me if this can feel trivial: About the editor – - Is there a way to see the coordinates of the cursor in the editor of the tilemap? For example if the mouse is pointing to tile 32x32 etc… - Similarly, is there a way to set up the borders units to the length of the tiles? - Is there a way to draw rectangles or straight lines in the tile editor? Or using a ‘Fill’ tool to fill a closed area with a tile? - Is it possible, when creating a collection, to create it with the same grid size of the imported tilemap? Also to add: it is possible to ‘snap to grid’ the tilemap and the object in the collection grid? ---

For example if the mouse is pointing to tile 32x32 etc… Yes, it’s in the upper left corner: ![Screenshot 2021-10-24 at 22.55.58](https://forum-defold.b-cdn.net/uploads/default/original/3X/c/b/cbe783547a3f9d5a8774e2f31eec15bc559499de.png) > [@150iso](#): > > what are 100, 200, 300 Pixels. > [@150iso](#): > > Is there a way to draw rectangles or straight lines in the tile editor? Or using a ‘Fill’ tool to fill a closed area with a tile? No I’m afraid not. Once you have some tiles placed you can select multiple tiles though and use those as a brush. > [@150iso](#): > > Is it possible, when creating a collection, to create it with the same grid size of the imported tilemap?

Thanks for the answer! For the cell coordinates… is there a way to toggle it? Because I can’t see it: ![Screenshot_1](https://forum-defold.b-cdn.net/uploads/default/original/3X/0/c/0c1164a609f1c074d49c0c085e77be9dd7016566.png) ---

Thanks. I do not have any idea why it isn’t working. Please create an issue on GitHub!
