I found a tutorial on creating a 2d platform editor.
The problem ive found with other free ones on here they have bugs.
or are just over complicate the issue
So here is a level editor that's fully documented

this editor will allow you to create a level bigger than the viewing window
allows you to save multiple levels
allows you to save as groups
allows a selection of tiles (saved with names 1.png 2.png etc)
Allows different sized tiles
has a magnetic drop that can be toggled on and off allowing so as tiles fit nicely
The instructions are text overlayed on the screen making it easier to know what keys etc
The arrow keys will move the viewport and the mouse is used to place sprites

The following link takes you to game I'm making "Zombies Escape" that I used the above platform level editor

I grouped the sprites as
//Group 0 bounderies with static physics
//Group 1 background sprites without collision
//Group 2 collision collectibles
//Group 3 Death Collisions
//Group 4 zombies
//Group 5 Start Level Sprite
//Group 6 End Level Sprite
