How to layer forest tiles in the editor
Hello,
I expect this is a super-dummy question, but I just can't figure out how to make the forest tiles in the editor act as overlay.
For example, I still use the 1.10 editor for some maps, because there the Hh^Fp used to be a standalone type you could select from the right-menu list.
Now, even though the terrain code of forests show ^Fp, when I left click it onto a Hh terrain, I always end up with having Gll^Fp, since Gll is the base_terrain for the forest. I can't get Hh^Fp onto the map.
So my question is how do you override the base layer, or how do you make the background tile stay what it was before applying forest?
I use 1.12.6 on debian mint.

Hold down shift when painting. Works for overriding both the overlay and underlay, depending on which type of terrain you have selected.

Oh, so easy 
Thanks.
I wonder, is there a help window in the editor, explaining stuff like this, that I missed?
