Very annoying bug in event editor

[Greg]

Hi!
Very often in event editor I can't select particular event. For example:

-Upon pressing "Spacebar"
+Global Value A = 1

If I'm trying to select event "Global Value A=1", MMF selects "Upon pressing "Spacebar"" all the time :/ It always select 1st event.

Could you please rephrase that.
Do you mean it ignores Global Value A = 1 and just keeps performin the action when you press space bar?

[Greg]

No, I don't mean runtime, but event editor. I can't select 2nd event (for example to copy, or delete it) because it select 1st event.

Oh yeah, I get that sometimes. I have to go to the next or previous frame, and then back to the original frame again in the event editor. A rather irritating bug to say the least.

I guess this will be fixed next build....right ?

Is it in the event list editor?

I know this bug, it's in the event editor. When I get it I change the order of an event in the line and reorder it after.
Then, the bug disappear.

I think it's the same bug in the event list editor.

When you select something and press "del", it's not always the selected one which is deleted.

Sphax, I sometimes get this problem too.
If there are several events and I want to delete the middle one, I select the middle one, press delete and it deletes the top one.

Hmm, yes I have experienced this as well. More of a nuisance really, but it goes away by playing around with the events a little. It's strange, because it keeps a dotted box around the first line so no matter what you press on the other events, it just goes straight to the first.

I've not had this specific problem, but the issue mention about deleting a condition from the event - this is due to the event having two selections. One is an inverted black box over a condition and the other is a dotted rubberband over a condition.

Quite often it is possible for these to get separated from each other in an event that has more than one condition. If I remember correctly, you can move the rubber band with the cursor keys (up + down) but the inverted selection does not move and I think the condition this is over is deleted. If you click the condition with the mouse, both selection markers go on the condition and that works when you press the delete key.
