Bugs to Fix:
- Adding rows/columns then changing the new terrain hexes changes the hexes to the side.
- Multiple tags: hide show hide any item that has any of the given tags, show should show any item with any of the tags
- Icosahedral split hexes no longer have mirror changes (change one half doesn’t automatically change the other half)
- When using 2 monitors, if main window is on monitor 2, dialogs appear on monitor 1
- Delete detection in rows orientation is a little off, for selected terrain in particular
- Retain texture overrides when undoing a delete
- On import of Hex 1 map, a feature’s override default scale is always true
- Isometric terrain has a fuzzy edge that makes it look like a gap between hexes
- Hex numbering changes not saved or loaded
New Feature Ideas (Big or Small):

- Delete Key should just let you delete, not select then delete.
Platform Issues: (Things we likely can’t fix because they are a bug in the underlying technology)
- Some fonts won’t load. Don’t know the specific criteria for what will and won’t load, but it is about 15%)
