Layout Editor Question

First, I'd like to say that Construct is great, and I hope the word continues to spread because I heard about it at random just a while ago, and it's exactly the kind of thing that I like.

Right now I'm designing a platformer, and would like to use invisible TiledBG objects for collisions and sprite objects on top of them for display. However, I want to resize a TiledBG that is behind a couple of sprites. The problem is, I can't click on it; clicking where I can see it in the layout editor just selects the overlapping sprite objects, since it's within the sprite's bounding box. I could move the sprite object, then resize the TiledBG, then move it back, but that'd be mighty inconvenient; especially since I need the TIledBG to be resized to be as long as the sprite objects I've got laid out right now.

So, my question is, how do I select something in the layout editor that's behind something else? If it helps, it's also on a separate Layer.

I thought there was a keypress-click combo that allowes you to select objects below the object you currently selected, but I forgot what it is

Anyway, if they're on a separate layer, you could just hide/lock the decorative layer while you work on the collision layer. Click the eye and lock icons for the layer.

Ah, thanks, locking the layers will work nicely. But if anybody does know the keypress combo, it might be worth noting, as I'm sure the issue will arise same-layer at some point. It'll probably just be less common, so less vital.

Back to laying out level!

Keyboard shortcuts

Hold Enter + left click

That was it!

It doesn't update the Properties bar until you let go the Enter key though, adding request to the tracker.
