Makes sense - I actually realized the split screen would not do what I was hoping for anyway (which was to be able to right-click-drag to get a stamp from one file and use it on the other - it makes sense why this doesn't work). 

Currently I'm working with layers and going from one to another to grab my stamps (set to the side of my main work area), but I think all I really need to do is have my tiles area of the canvas copied to all layers.

Unrelated - I noticed that undo-redo sometimes doesn't work with color changes or outline tool changes (can't remember which). I also think to NOT shade the work area when the tool window is open would be a good change (because when you preview changes the shading makes it hard to see accurately).

Yes I've found myself doing the same a few times, before switching to a marquee/select copy and paste. I don't know whether including some form of moving those tiles across would work or cause complications, I'd expect it'd need to be without any tile indices, e.g. just as the tile graphics which could then be indexed manually in the document if needed, or if it that'd be more annoying if you're going between different projects/levels and you have stamped tiles following you when you didn't want to.

I'll make a note to look into the undo-redo as there are some manual rules set as to what should be included in the undo and redo and what shouldn't, so they may need a tweak. I agree things with the possibility to preview shouldn't be shaded with an overlay too, it's been removed in some places so will have a look around for others it hasn't been yet.

Awesome! Also, I noticed if you move the tool's window, it maintains that position as long as the app is open. I think it might be desirable to maintain the window position even after quitting and reopening the app. You could have a double click to re-center in case someone wanted it centered again. 

Good idea

I've made a few of these changes for the next one, I've not been able to replicate the undo/redo not working for either of the outline tools or colour changes though
