What browser are you using? Do you see the same issue with a different browser?
I'm just using Google chrome. It's legit not letting me alter anything on the starting layout with events. I just tried doing an event that on left mouse click spawn an item at point 0, 0... and it still won't do that. Like the starting layout in the editor and in the Arcade version that's been up for about a half a year just randomly stopped working for me.
