Edit - Nevermind. Figured it out.

Hello. I think I’m doing something wrong. I’m brand new at this.

I’ve imported a tileset

![tileset](https://cdck-file-uploads-canada1.s3.dualstack.ca-central-1.amazonaws.com/flex035/uploads/mapeditor/original/2X/9/9f581f9bbe7bb73b48f08e1edd6ba5d27f7f12c6.jpeg)

And I’m trying to drag and paint with a tile as shown in the tutorials. I have a layer selected, the stamp tool selected, but the tile isn’t transferring over to the grid. No clue what I’m doing wrong. Anyone have an idea?

Thanks in advance.
