Better editor sprite area

2. As far as backgrounds are concerned, the windows I did use on a few occasions, but usually I do try to create

new things

in the background too, and it's always a lot of trial & error while choosing the right tiles.

Therefore I can only beg with you, while you're at it...please do make the tiles area also bigger, not just the sprites area (as in the picture above) !!!    

For 1, what I do is still copy & paste the entire ladder, then use the eye-dropper tool (Option-click) to select certain parts of the tiles from what I copied, and draw them into other parts. This way, I can *very* quickly change the ladder to be different each time, but still use the copy and paste method, and never have to go to the Tiles menu.

As for making the tiiles area bigger, I'm not sure if this is easily done, but I might look into it. The thing is, if I did make it bigger, they would be

blown up

and very pixelated. I'm not sure if it would help much.
