Other World Mapper Forum

One of the features from the campaign is "Option to have a circle or ellipse represent the edge of a flat map (instead of rectangular edge)." Would that work for the map you are making? I'm curious if that would fit into what you are trying to do. The circle/ellipse would be constrained by the widt...

Sorry, some of this was poster in the "errors" forum. I really need to go back to the root of the alpha forum each time :( 1) As you can tell for the emailed map, the two maps I've started with are the entire globe. It would be very useful to have a circle tool so that the edges of the globe can be ...

Alejandro; Disabling the shorelines certainly speeds things up, I can actually have both hemispheres open at once. A couple of observations: 1) when you collapse the Properties palettes, the scroll bar remains showing things which are below the displayed window: which is not the case. dialogs.jpg 2)...

I'm also running on Win 7 Pro and Win 8.1 Pro. Only issues there are is File Insert doesn't function: but it isn't supposed t...

Well, Vista is a total bust. Installation as administrator and a reboot produces the same error:
"The procedure entry point GdipDeleteEffect could not be located in the dynamic link library gdiplus.dll"

No issues on Windows 7 Pro or 8.1 Pro.

And the same to your and yours: a blessed, joyous and restful Christmas and a New Year of great successes and accomplishments.

I'm so glad you made ALL your stretch goal. As a GM who has been making maps by hand and then on a computer (using various not very satisfactory programs) I thinks it's great that you are working on an all-in-one program. Sure will make my campaign a lot easier even with 30+ years of maps and the li...
