      Can we set the SU NOT to display a "Type" box in the Entity Info Window?

        I don't think there's any option for that. I wouldn't mind having control over that since it isn't applicable to the types of projects i draw.

          Probably not applicable to vast majority.

          It reminded me of another thing. Now as before, when you create a component it asks for the "Name". Thereafter this "name" becomes "Definition" and another blank "Name" field appears for the instance in Entity Info. Isn't that sort of an inside joke? I've forgotten about it entirely, but it must stump every beginner.

          This all important window gets these extra fields, that I suspect few people use.

            I don't know if there was a joke related to that or not. I suppose it could be confusing to some that components have definition names and instance names.
