--- Objects and grids in the scene ---

Hey there,
1- Is there anyway where you can select more than one object in the scene at the same time ?! I tried a lot but I couldn't find out. It's very hard to move 100 objects in the scene separately.
2- Are there any rulers or grids where you can measure distance between objects in the scene and adjust them on same line ?! How can you view rulers in the scene ?
I'm sure these are very simple basic issues everyone knows how to deal with, but I couldn't find it out where to find it.
Thank you in advance.

1. No, not at this time unfortunately. We've asked for that addition for several years -- hoping this year is the year we get it!
2. You can double click an actor on the scene and take a look at its X position. Say it's at, 100 pixels. You click back and open another actor and change its X position to 200. That way it's exactly 100 pixels to the right of the previous.

Ohh, that's really sad,
If you are using OS X and have a magic mouse or any mouse with a scroll wheel, then you can use the system zoom (control + flick up / scroll up on your mouse to zoom in) - just remember to turn 'smooth images' off in accessibility in your system preferences.
So the tool doesn't have rulers and you can't select more than one object at a time...
3- Is there anyway where you can zoom in and out the scene to check if your objects are in the right exact place ?? or otherwise you loose your vision !!
Besides that, all your questions seem to be leading to the same grisly conclusion
) . . . . yes, GameSalad only has a very basic interface, like Braydon says we've been asking for all the things you've mentioned (and more) for years now, and like he says hopefully this year we'll get some basic GUI / layout tools.
