Radio button for Marquee Tool

The Marquee Tool only has two states. A Radio Button would make much more sense and would allow for faster use than the current fly-out selection.

Unselected it would be the current story state.
Selected would be the multistory state.

Or maybe the two buttons should be just placed next to each other so you dont have to click for the little menu to appear, you could just click one or the other. Just like in the case of Geometry Methods for Walls etc.
I think this could apply to all other similar settings in the Info Box: having a series of buttons next to each other and you just click the one you wish to switch to.

Laszlo,

I agree completely. The info box works fairly well overall, but it could certainly use some tweaks to speed up and simplify use. If there are multiple options then the multiple button idea could speed up things as well. If there are just two states, the radio button makes more sense and takes up less room.
