    Trouble with erasing...

    Hi,
    First time using the forum and working on map creation in Fantasy Grounds. I was am trying to learn how to use the map maker by following along with Jashua Watmough in the Gencon 2021 - Map creation video (That's not the problem, just a bit of context). I was at a part right after he uses the rectangle brush tool to put down the first floor walls and then uses the erase tool to make an opening for some doors. Here is where my problem is;

    - When I go to erase the wall by selecting the layer than the erase tool, it will extend the wall where ever I drag. I will attach images for reference.
    - I have tried closing the image, and program just to open to the same problem.

    - I am also noticing that when I select a layer and try to use the erase tool on individual objects on those layers it just deletes everything on the layer.
    - I can work around this with the edit tool in the paint tab but it does not seem that should be the way the eraser should be working.

    I have not tried a reinstall yet. Please let me know if there is any known solution to this. If it is already posted somewhere else please let me know where and sorry for the repeated question. If this is not the correct place to ask this question please let me know where I should be asking. Thanks all.

    Thanks for the report. I'll take a look at this.

    I have the same issue and replied to pindercarl but I do not see that post. I apologize if this is a redundant post. I never could wrap my head around this type of forum format.

    Looks like the video will have what Carl needs to investigate this.

    This should be addressed in next release currently in the Test channel.
