Yes this is one of the drawbacks... The H3 map editor had that feature if I remember correctly.
Also there is no way, that I have found to simply just target something and select it on the map - to either delete it or rotate it or move it. The only way I can accomplish that is by going into the objects list and finding it there and deleting it and re-creating it.
There must be a better way!

There is!
You simply need to have objects tab open, so that you are in the 'object mode' and then simply click on the object you wish to edit/move/rotate/whatever.
Important thing is ti click at the base of the object i.e. the tile it's sitting on. Turning the grid on helps (as it's sometimes difficult to hit the right square, especially with trees).

Ok so this has been stumping me... has anyone been able to get the PWL picture to work on a custom map?
The picture that shows when you load the map inside the game.. I followed the instructions and it even made my map file 3mb, but it doesnt show in the game. It's probably something minor, but its bugging me haha

Heh I have the same problem. Namely, when I create a new object .(texture), as said in the manual, I can't attach my .tga file into it.
When I click 'source' and select my picture, it simply doesn't do anything. I have followed the manual very precisely, made a .tga picture 1024x1024, yet it does not work.
It annoys me too 
So if somebody actually manages to attach custom PWL picture let me know.
The very same problem is with the miniature picture (the one that shows up when you highlight the map).

I have the same problem 
I couldn't manage to put my PWL .tga file so I copied some random pic from original map. But the result was too bad

haha... Ok fine. I updated the Battle For Honor map and Ill post the version when I get home today. I made some changes to reflect the gameplay changes in the 1.3 patch.
I need to finish Hourglass and get a beta version posted so you all can try it and help me work out the bugs.

Why u asking me?
Although I haven't officially contributed anything yet.. I was hoping to get the PWL pic to work and make the maps look more professional
But regardless.. I need to post the battle for honor map and finish the hourglass map and contribute my share to the maps

Yup as a matter of fact I have Battle for Honor version 1.3 here and 2 screenshots of my Hourglass work in progress. I MIGHT finish Hourglass tonight if I don't go out.
**Ok I fixed these links.. still going through some hosting issues right now, but this should work for now.**

I'll be building up the maps page in the next few days, and then start a new thread on this, with the posting & review of these maps. Each time a map is perfected, I will make screenshots of its base design and then have it downloadable on ToH -- and available as a map to play for ToH.
I will also play every map before it gets posted on ToH -- vs. computer on hard difficulty from both ends.

That's how I've tested and worked on my Battle for Honor map. Cept I played hotseat against myself so I could try both sides
Battle for honor should be a finished map.. unless I missed something, but I did play it last night again and didnt notice anything.
So feel free to test it Ves.
