Placed List Palette†
This is a list of objects and events placed on the map that can be managed in one place. From here, you can change the position and size of the object or load them into the event editor.
Feature Description†
The Placed List palette has the following features:
- Add Button
Add a new event on the map.
Clicking the button opens a dialog box where you can specify the location of the event.
- Preview
A map viewed from directly above will be displayed. Scroll by dragging and click on the location.
- Destination Coordinates
You can specify the placement location by entering the X, Y, and Z coordinates.

On the Placed List, groups are represented by a so-called folder-like appearance.
You can also create groups under a group.
- Copy Button
Copy the selection.
- Paste Button
Paste the copied selections.
- Delete Button

- Show/Hide Checkbox
If the checkbox is unchecked, the entry will not appear in the map editor or in gameplay.
Note that you can still move and perform other operations even if it is hidden on the map editor.
Not only will it be hidden in game play, but its collision detection will also be disabled, and it will be treated as non-existent.

Once locked (yellow), the entry can no longer be manipulated using the manipulator in the map editor.
When multiple entries, including a locked entry, are selected and moved or otherwise manipulated, the locked entry is not affected by the manipulation.

You can change the name of multiple entries on the list at once.

The current entry names for the selected entries are lined up.
Double-clicking assigns the name of the entry to the "Prefix" field.

The converted entry names are lined up, reflecting the results entered for the prefix and numbering digits.
- Prefix
Specify the letter to be prefixed to the entry name.
This "Prefix" plus the "numbering digit" is the name of the entry.
