I made a tutorial on how to navigate the editor and get the basics down. I thought that it'd be nice to have a comprehensive video tutorial on using the editor, updated for Heart of the Swarm. I also go into detail about map bounds and creating certain features in your map. This is for beginners, but anybody can learn something from it really.

You should just post the video itself instead of linking to youtube
Edit: Damn, an hour long. Guess "Comprehensive" was the right word

Been listening to this in the background, almost done. Seems super solid, good work. You went over most important things without being confusing or going too fast, and covering all the keyboard shortcuts as you came to them was a good idea.

I am sort of confused, how did you get the yellow border that shows where the playable part of the map to show up?

The O key toggles that. But It's the blue border than shows what's playable, not the yellow one.
all's fair in love and melodies

I don't think so. This is the custom map forum after all.
