Painter Exclusive Mode

The TilePlus Configuration dialog has a checkbox for “Painter Exclusive” and there’s a corresponding option button at the bottom of the Painter window.

Side note: The convention in the TilePlus system is that a configuration item is in the TilePlus configuration if it at all affects that system even if the configuration item involves Painter.

This option controls certain issues that can occur when both Tile+Painter and the UTE are both open at the same time:

  • Both the TilePlus Brush and Painter will try to draw text into the Scene View.
  • The UTE can grab focus and/or being the active “Tool” away from Painter when you don’t want it to.

Setting this option ON means that Painter will have exclusive control in the Scene and using the Palette won't switch Editor Tools.

Use the '+' button at the bottom of the Painter window to turn this mode on or off quickly.
