Saving Pieces
I am trying to figure out how to export pieces of a map at different levels of 'zoom'.
What I'd like to do is export the full map at 256x256 pixels, then a number of 256x256 pieces that together make up the full map, then yet another with a huge number of 256x256 pieces that make up the full map.
Is there a native way to do this? I know the draw menu can concatenate maps, but I haven't seen a way to break them apart.
Thanks!

The usual way to do that is to resize the border and erase everythings that does'nt fit inside. All overlapping has to be edited and trimmed to the new border.
As CC3 works with vector entities and not pixels, you cannot just select a window to copy everything inside.
I do a 'save as' a rectangular section bmp of the area I want to make a smaller map of. Import the bmp into another map, draw, add symbols, etc.

Thanks for the suggestion, though! I'll play with that method anyway and see what I can produce.
