You cannot rotate objects in editor. And if you rotated a object then put it back into object.wil, the shaddow would be in incorrect place, so i wudnt advise doing.

you can use the erase tool???

If your using shortys its the bin (what a surpise..) if your using another oner, get shortys, its better

Ok, basically if your say, making a wall of Trees. Go onto Bar on top, one of drop downs, will have
Show Objects
Show Middle Tile
etc..
Turn off Bckground, middle tiles. Then look at trees, look where line is goin, Then turn off your objects. So all you can see is atributes. Then do 1by1. It will take a while, but its alot quicker. as page refreshes quicker. THen make sure area your filling with atributes is solid, Then fill :P. any questions just PM me, i had same issues untill i learn to turn off objects.
