Show all image layers in position selection windows?

    For setting walk-to points in Visionaire I get an extra window to click the coordinate. But I see in this window only the background graphic (in my game it is the sky or other sparsely filled background layers in most cases). I see no foreground layers with objects, paths, buildings and other important stuff. I have no orientation. Can I turn on all image layers in this selection preview?

    by the way: why there is no position selection button for the snoop animation position? This is a lot of work to read (from screen) and write (with keyboard) the snoop animation coordinates for hundreds (thousands?) of objects... This could be so easy with a single click.

    Or is there a hidden trick to copy the current mouse position to the clippboard (rightklick/shortcut?) and insert the coordinates in the position x [ ] y [ ]-string boxes?

    I thought the scene objects were supposed to be visible in the popup window? To be honest I never pay much attention to it. The thing I don't understand is why you can't just set it on the main scene preview window itself. Click a button, then left click on the scene somewhere to set it.

    I suppose the extra window is needed to handle the character preview? But I agree with you, the extra window is not needed actually. It would be nice to see the current walk-to point as a small dot or marker in the normal scene preview if I select an object. At the moment I have to open the extra window for every object to check the position.

    Hmm character preview? On windows for setting the object interaction I can see the currently visible scene objects that I can see in the main scene window.

    Maybe a mac os issue?

    regarding snoop anination: you are able to place the animations directly on the scene window ( also on a mac).
