Will FT3 ever have overlay export and - even better - text labels?
I'm really enjoying tinkering with FT3 and CC3.
I'm planning to use the software for creating worlds and then - in the long term - maintaining and "exploring" them. I'm trying to get a handle on how I'll go from FT3 to CC3. Ideally, I would use the FT3 version of the world as my main reference, with specific local maps done in CC3. This gets around problems with projections and keeps life simple in a multitude of ways. You know what's coming...
The big hurdle for me is that I can't mark key human features on FT3 and have them carry over to CC3.
If I could just splotch on Constantinople/Rome-grade cities in FT3 Overlay and have them appear in CC3 that would do the trick.
Even better would be to have the capability to add labels directly rather than having to create them in OpenOffice.
Throw in some symbols and I'd be ecstatic.
(Let me drill down to more levels of detail without leaving FT3 and...)
I appreciate that as a (very minor) pro writer, I'm not necessarily a typical user, but I thought I had better ask so I can plan the best long-term approach:
Is any of this likely to appear in the near future?
Cheers
