recangle tool texture problem

<div class="IPBDescription">and cant find player start entity</div>Hi there! i have a small problem. when i use the rectangle tool, no texture appears on it when its built, and when i try to apply a texture nothing happens...

also i cant find the player start entity in create entity.

i watched a tutorial but it says in the video its a pre aplha version of the editor, so i dont know if something has changed since then regarding my problem or if im being a noob.

thanks in advance!

Does the face remain black? If so, you may have your perspective view set to 'textured lit' without any light source to light the face up. If you click on 'perspective' in the top left corner of that view port, you can select 'textured unlit', or you can just add a light near the face.

The player start entity is called the 'ready_room_start'.

If the face fails to appear, there is always an option to select all connected edges and in "edit" menu click "create face" (you have to be in "select tool" mode). Or perhaps the face was created upside down, so select the face an click "flip face" in same menu.
