Hope these arn't Dumb Questions, but they might me :)

In the Top Right Corner of the Editor, under the Help Button, there is a small box with two circles in there, one is blue or white the other hollow. What are they for??

Is there a way to lock you working Windows in the Editor once you resize them. I like to have my Inspector Windows a lot bigger that what it is, but every time I back out of editing something it goes back to the narrow default sizing.

How do I lock the game in code so it doesn't rotate if I tilt the phone?

Thanks in advance for everyones help,
Game Salad Rocks!!
Cheers,

@dimsdale … not dumb questions …
just showing the curiosity you have … that will make you great at this!

==
that icon does look like 2 circles … but believe represents a lock

it is active when you do a sceneEditor preview
(the light grey ► to the left of that icon)

lock's default color is blue … default function shows the original position of moving actors
clicking it changes its color to grey … and scenePreview does not show original position

use sceneEditor preview when aligning things/ or verifying things you just coded

when you Pause (||) that preview … you can move things around in the scene
then unPause to see the new effects
--
alas, in the GS Manual … images of The Scene Editor
do not show the menuBar for: camera … scenePreview … lock
hope we don't lose that ease in designing scenes!

==
maintaining userDefined states in GS … has been a big wish for a long time
think we have to wait for the new GUI … hopefully soon!

I for one would like the projectPreview to open in a separate window
