    YEAH! You've reminded me of something I wish for every single day.

    My old software allowed us to Select Previous or Select Last. It's an incredible time saver - beyond what you can imagine.

    Select Previous was the last thing selected. If you accidentally press "escape" and wish you had that selection set back - here you go.

    Select Last selects the last thing you created. No aiming, no tabbing through things. Want that door you just inserted? Here it is. That wall? Ditto.

    I wrote code in 1984 to make my Sinclair 100 - so I used to be a programmer! So I can say with authority how easy it is to program Chief features! ;-)
