I imported a line drawing of my campaign from FT Pro. I wanted to just use the Tool Land Default and then Trace but it does not seem to be working. It only goes to the end of the line that the first anchor point is on. What can I do to make it trace the whole map?
The Sheets. For some reason I can not get Islands that are within lakes to show up. All I get is there coastline with no fill. I've moved the sheets around but I can't seem to figure out where to move stuff.

The easiest way is probably to create a new sheet (e.g. LAKE ISLANDS) with the same effects as the LAND sheet. Put that above the RIVERS sheet. Now make a copy of the "Land, Default" drawing tool and under the Advanced options, make sure that it puts the land polygon on the new sheet.

I didn't know you could do this, and I'd like to make my templates better.
There is some info about drawing tools in the "CC2 Complete" manual, under the Mountain chapter.
Copying a drawing tools is just a matter of selecting an existing tool, then hit the "New" button. Give the tool a name, and you end up with a new toll that is a copy of the one you selected.

Each issue actually includes a nice .pdf explaining the style and how to create a map using that style.
I belive the .pdf guides are only available through the Annual subscription or purchase of the previous year's content.
I now import a line drawing of the map from FT Pro then explode, change rivers and lakes to Water layer, lake Islands to new layer then freeze and hide them and change the fill style to what style of map I'm using and change the line width to how the normal style would be.
One very weird problem I'm noting is when using the contour, Sea or Land mass tools .... all the outlines are in some hideous shade of purple .. like the pallet hs shifted from the original blues. Scales, and Navigation Lines, too.
