13 The bottom border of the map window holds four clusters of
\r
14 feedback information.
\r
16 <p><div class = "subheading">Z-Axis Layers</div>
\r
18 <div class = "menu">(Shortcut: SHIFT + Middle mouse click on 2D map window)</div>
\r
20 If you are using any window layout that includes the Z-axis
\r
21 scale, you can see the vertical relationships between components
\r
24 <p><div class = "subheading">Cursor Coordinates</div>
\r
26 These three coordinates, found to the left of center, report the
\r
27 xyz position of the cursor in the 2D map window.
\r
29 <ul><div class = "menu">x:: 0.0 y:: 0.0 z:: 0.0</div></ul>
\r
31 <p><div class = "subheading">Brush & Entity Counter</div>
\r
33 This readout is located at roughly center position. It reports
\r
34 the number of brushes (including brushes forming brush entities)
\r
35 and the number of non-brush entities (items, spawn spots, lights,
\r
38 <ul><div class = "menu">Brushes: 0 Entities: 0</div></ul>
\r
40 <p><strong>Pushing the Limits</strong>
\r
42 This is a good place (as any) to talk about limits. <i>
\r
43 Quake III Arena</i> has an upper limit of 2048 entities (including
\r
44 entity lights!!) and while it's not an upper limit, staying under
\r
45 8000 brushes is a pretty good idea.
\r
47 <p><div class = "subheading">Selection</div>
\r
49 This readout temporarily replaces the Brush & Entity counter
\r
50 when a map component is selected. The numbers represent the
\r
51 dimensions of the selection.
\r
53 <ul><div class = "menu">Selection X:: 0.0 Y:: 0.0 Z:: 0.0</div></ul>
\r
55 <p><div class = "subheading">Origin</div>
\r
57 This readout temporarily replaces the Brush & Entity counter
\r
58 when a select map component is moved. The numbers represent the
\r
59 origin point of the selection (and track it as it moves).
\r
61 <ul><div class = "menu">Origin X:: 0.0 Y:: 0.0 Z:: 0.0</div></ul>
\r
63 <p><div class = "subheading">Cursor Travel Distance</div>
\r
65 These three coordinates, found to the right of the brush and
\r
66 entity counter, report the distance that cursor has traveled from
\r
67 the point where the user has clicked on the 2D map window.
\r
69 <ul><div class = "menu">Distance X:: 0.0 Y:: 0.0 Z:: 0.0</div></ul>
\r
71 <p><div class = "subheading">Control Settings</div>
\r
73 In the lower right corner of the editor window, you will see a
\r
74 string of letters and numbers that might look something like
\r
77 <ul><div class = "menu">G:8 T:16 R:45 C:10 L:MR</div></ul>
\r
79 Each of these letter/number combinations represents the setting
\r
80 for one of the commonly used tools.
\r
85 <td width = 90%>Grid. Here, it's set to 8 units.</td>
\r
89 <td width = 90%>Texture Tweak. This the increment in pixels that a texture will
\r
90 shift. Here, it's set to 16 pixels.</td>
\r
94 <td width = 90%>Rotation. This is the amount of increment, in degrees that a
\r
95 texture or brush will rotate.</td>
\r
99 <td>Cubic Clip depth of field. When cubic clip is set, this is how far,
\r
100 in terms of 64 unit blocks that you can see into the map. Here, the
\r
101 setting of 10 would allow you to see 640 units into the map.</td>
\r
105 <td>Texture Lock. If M is showing, then it is locked for moves.
\r
106 If R is showing, then it is locked for rotations.</td>

353 Camera window can significantly slow down speed at which your point

682 map file will be saved to its source directory. Note, that it is
\r
683 usually a good idea to save the map into the directory used by the
\r
684 compiler as the source of its map data. Remember to give the file a
\r
685 name. The compiler doesn't like to work with files called Unnamed

695 give the map a filename.

703 The selected brushes are saved as a map file. This is not the

704 way to make prefabs, though.

\r
712 If the user has "regioned off" a subset of the map, this command
\r
713 will save it as a separate file. It is grayed out unless the user
\r
714 has created a regioned area. The editor prompts the user to enter a
\r
715 file name before saving.

\r
727 <br>OK, There isn't actually a command called this. When you open
\r
728 the File Menu, you will see (after you've done some work on maps),
\r
729 the path/file names for the last six maps that you worked on. They
\r
730 are listed here for easy opening access).

\r
768 This gives a readout of brushes (including curve patches) and
\r
769 entities in the map, including the total number of brushes that are

770 not part of entities. There is also a breakdown, by type, showing

771 the number of entities in the map.

\r
781 This gives a read-out of the entities in a map by their

782 type. It allows you to select an entity, which
\r
783 hi-lights it in the XY Map. Good for locating lost entities.
