I think it would benefit icon makers so that for the locate function, after you locate a color, it goes back to the function you were using before. Example: Line.

Yes, please! I have so much trouble with this. I locate a color, and being used to MS Paint, go to draw whatever I needed to draw, and accidently select the another color. Very frustrating.

Just hold down the Ctrl key and click, and it will pick up the color for you.

Am I the only person besides you that knows about that? I found it out by accident a couple months ago.

Nah, I knew that for a long time, but I thought other people knew that as well. There are a couple of not well known features of the icon editor (like holding Shift and drawing something will erase instead of draw).

It went into BYOND some time ago, at my suggestion. I think it was during that 307-324 beta phase. If you look far enough back into the release notes you'll find that.

Same here...
I think I discovered it by accident though.

Should'nt things like this be documented in the accompanying help file of dreammaker?
Is it in danger of being phased out or something,or was it just overlooked?

You know, it probably wasn't documented. I'll see if I can find the DM help file and add that.
