Adding images to blank actor

So I am having a hard time adding images to a blank actor. When I add a 128x128 pixel image to the instance or prototype the image tiles very small(option set to tile of course and pixel size set to that of image128x128) as I want a repeated image for say a walkway instead of adding an actor and having to line up the pixels just right every time. UGH no snap feature!

So in actor under graphics I have changed it to several sizes (75x75 128x128 256x256) and for the imported images that are 128x128 there is no change in the picture size I just get small blocks tiled no matter the settings under graphics. but if i add an image with that of say 256x256 it tiles them properly (full size).

    Size of the image is 128 x 128
    Size of the actor
    Height 128
    Width 128
    Horizontal Wrap set to tile
    Vertical Wrap set to tile
    Tile width 128
    Tile Height 128

    I did it and it worked fine , try testing on a new actor .. it might be a bug but i doubt it ,im on the mac creator so I don't know , but it should work this way.. :)

    Yeah I've tried making a new actor about four times as well saving closing gs everything.

    My only thought is issue with some of my images they say 128x128 and the single version looks fine but maybe the way the creator uploaded or made them? I don't know. Weird

    Make sure the image dpi is 72. I'll move this to Working with GS (PC).

    I just wanted to update this in case anyone else has this issue. It only looks proper when you run the game not in the editor. So it must be some type of bug.
    So I should be fine?
