My webhost was down when I went to upload 1.6, so I decided to work on the Item Editor some more. I came up with a new way to handle the bitfields and I really like this over the current dialog windows.

Dialog Windows (current) : http://emu.fliphost.net/images/bitfield2.jpg
Dropdown Checkbox (proposed) : http://emu.fliphost.net/images/bitfield1.jpg

Because I enjoy everyone's opinions and wish to please everyone, I don't feel like I should go ahead with the changes without everyone's thoughts. If you use my Item Editor, then please vote.

Also, I will no longer be posting releases on these forums. To get new releases of the Item Editor, please visit http://emu.fliphost.net/ periodically.

I like the dropdown box as it keeps the item editor neater.

However I believe that if I was editting items it would be quicker for me to click several checkboxes on a smaller form than scrolling down through a combo box.

Excellent work again mangoo! *applause*

I can always make the dropdown window larger so there isn't any scrolling involved.

I'd prefer the dropdown box, though they're rarely used in other programs, so nobody really knows how to use them. You know ... "whoa, what's that? damn new stuff I don't understand *quits the program*" :)

Anyway, stick with the dropdown box. Much easier to code too.

Unrelated to the above: Why do you quit posting new releases?

I won't be posting releases in the forums from now on for two reasons: 1) My release post got whacked 2) I have a website for it up now

Right-clicking while the box is down selects/deselects all.
