Draw coastline without closing a landmass?

Post by Khoram » Sun Apr 03, 2016 12:55 pm

I apologize if this has been asked and answered before, but I could not find a topic nor item in the help file.

Is there a way to draw a map with a coastline that stretches from edge to edge of a map, without closing the landmass after the last point?

A landmass has to be a closed path. We are planning on having a way to snap the outline of a landmass to the edges of a map, but it's not scheduled for the next release.

Until then, you can move the landmass so that the outlines are off the edge of the map and then use point edit to correct any sections that are where the landmass outline is still showing.

Hope that helps
