Eden Editor Drop Down Bug

[darkxess 60]

Ever since the latest update (1.68) the drop downs in the Eden editor are bugged. Selecting it so that it should be default drop-down for selecting your required option does not work

it makes the noise and flickers but does not drop down. I am experiencing this with using nothing more than the vanilla game with no mods etc selected.

I have the same thing does not work the choice of color markers
Not working select the type of trigger is activated, checked all modules 

Ask the developers to fix this issue as a mission to do became impossible

We've found the cause and it should be fixed. We are now waiting for a final confirmation from the QA department. Thank you for the report.

I'm currently still experiencing this issue, when trying to open drop downs when in the attributes.

This happens with and without mods, on both 32x and 64x bit versions of ARMA.

A hotfix was just released: https://dev.arma3.com/post/spotrep-00065 it was not fixed! the bug is still there and can't get the drop down to work correctly :(

Same problem here :(

Seems to happen to a random box every time I open a new mission.

This is driving me nuts.  I thought it was supposedly fixed?  As of the latest version that I am aware of (via Steam) the bug is still there.  The tracker still notes that it's caused by " Irregular aspect ratios".  I'm 16:9 and it used to work just fine.   I'll assume that note is old and not accurate as to what the actual cause is. 

 

Sorry to bitch ... love the game, but this is super basic functionality IMO and should be addressed before future DLCs, etc.

Can confirm the issue is still there on a 16:9 aspect ratio (1920x1080, which should be the most common)

Hope there will be a fix in the near future, because it's really annoying to change the values in the mission.sqm afterwards :D

But I bet it'll be fixed before content updates.

It is still an issue. Well, window-mode works fine for me, except borderless window (by ALT + RETURN)

This bug should finally be fixed in the current RC and Development branch since a few weeks (it took longer than expected). Thank you all for the reports

I just noticed with the 1.70 update that in the Attributes window the Simple Object check box is no longer there. That was under Object: Special States. I used this, for example: the Stick Fence so that I could make a pen for sheep that could not pass through. Was this removed? Is there another way to do this I am unaware of?

I noticed this too. It's there for some objects. For example, walls like H-Barrier have is no "Simple Object" tickbox option under the Special States attribute, but an ammo crate does have the option.

 

BIS did change some stuff regarding simple objects, but I have no idea whether this is intentional or not.

Hmm.. I was trying to make a Stick Fence pen for some sheep. But the sheep would walk right through the fence and wander away. I found that when I checked the Simple Object box in the Stick Fence attributes they could no longer walk through the fence. I am wondering now how do I accomplish this now that the check box option is not there.
