When trying to export a player file, when I back up a few folders a little scrollbar down arrow appears in the top-left corner of the screen.

I think this might be happening when you browse to a folder that has a lot of hidden files. My RPG data folder is a bit of a dump for sprites and sounds when I'm working on them, and I think it therefore detects it would need a scrollbar for all those files, then decides it doesn't need to show them.

Clicking the Show hidden files box doesn't show any of these files though.

I can't reproduce this in the latest dev build. How many files do you think are needed in the directory to make the arrow appear?

I just checked the 2.0 engine and even the last (non-public) 1.3 build I used and it seems I can't get it to show up either.

I've noticed a difference from the screenshot in both of those builds, the presence of a [C:] folder entry at the bottom of the list that takes me back to my drive's root directory. It seems this being just off the bottom of the scroll list might have been the cause of this bug previously.

Anyway, looks like it may have been fixed at some point. Yay!
