Finding specific symbols for my projects

Bruce Pilcher

Hello:

I have been having fun following some of the tutorials and experimenting on my own. I am having trouble finding specific symbols to meet my needs. For example, today I am making a map based on a published D&D adventure. The description of the room (I am using dungeon designer) says there is a mirror on the wall. I am working in the Naomi VanDoren style. I can't find a mirror in her catalogs. Is there anyway I can search all the various catalogs that I have in my Profantasy directories other than opening each one in CC+

I guess I am looking for a list of all symbols in each of the symbol sets I have purchased.

Thanks Bruce

You can search the Symbols folder like you would search for any other file using File Explorer. Just put a likely search phrase in, like 'mirror' and see if there are any in there. I suspect not, since I've not seen one myself.

If you don't find one you could draw one with polygons instead, or maybe find a suitable image online to modify and add to CC3 as your own new symbol.

There may be something in one of the free Vintyri sets, but I don't have those installed and don't know. All the free assets can be found on links in this thread: https://forum.profantasy.com/discussion/10443/free-symbols-artwork

There is a blog article available describing ways to find symbols (from your installed collections):
