- !ELayout Editor Help
- With the Layout Editor function you can create your own playing boards
- or modify any of the ones that come with the game. All you have to do
- is place tiles where you wish on the playing board. The editor starts
- with the layout you were last playing with.

- !DHow To Place Tiles
- The editor really has only two basic functions: placing a tile and removing
- a tile. To place a tile, move the cursor to the position you want and click
- the left mouse button. A tile will be placed at the lowest possible level.
- To remove a tile move the cursor directly above the tile and click the
- right mouse button. Because of the 3-D effect used by the game you must be
- careful when positioning the mouse to be sure you select exactly the tile
- you want.

- !FLimitations
- Layouts do not have to contain 144 tiles like most of the standard boards
- do. However, the number of tiles does have to be a multiple of 4 to allow
- for the proper number of tile pairs to be placed. The only other limitation
- is on the rightmost column where only one level is allowed. The rest of the
- board can have up to five levels of tiles.

- start over with a blank board.

- !LPlay Menu
- Select this to immediately play the layout you have been editing. The
- editor will exit back to the game with the new layout in use.
- 5
- !LQuit Menu
- Use this to quit the layout editor and return to the game using the
- previously loaded layout. If you have previously used the Play Menu
- there may no longer be a previous layout to return to; you'll get a
- warning and the default layout will load.
