Image Layer Default Tool

Post by DK »

Can someone tell me how to change the script for the default tool when an image layer is selected. Currently it is set to the Image Masking tool and it is driving me nuts whenever I select or load an image I try to grab the layer to move it and the masking tool deletes a selection of my image.

I am used to the translate tool being the default in 5.6. Can someone tell me how to fix this?
in AS8?

Thanks

Well, this is one very simple way to deal with it;

Open the the _tool_list.txt in your editor
and move the section starting with

group MOHO.Localize("/Tools/Group/Special=Special")

WITH the tools belonging to it and

place it BELOW the section starting with

group MOHO.Localize("/Tools/Group/Layer=Layer")


That should do it.

cheers :-)
