Hello!

Is it doing that for all walls? (i.e. Room walls, corridor walls, and stand alone walls)?

Can you email me a map that's doing it? Can't seem to reproduce it over here.

Thank you!!

Hello Smithy,

We found the bug. When trying to place a door, the point is inside the bounds of the landmass surrounding your dungeon, so the program is looking for items on that landmass instead of looking at the canvas. It's been fixed in the next release since we're changing the draw order and canvas items will be drawn “on top” of landmasses.

As a work around for Beta 4, I found that you can place doors if you hide the landmasses using the layers tree.

Thank you for the help!
