problems with CD+

I'm having problems with CD3.

1. My first problem (or irritation) is that CD won't run for the first install or Repair without my installing Random City. Like I said, its more an irritation than a problem now i've found a workaround.

2. The problem that has made me make contact now is Floorplans > Bitmap A > Wall features (the one that gives you windows & doors) is showing the corresponding menu in Bitmap B. The .pngs in Bitmap A are there but whenever I either click the button just above the drawing area or I navigate to the folder by clicking on the right hand column of symbols and then using the folder menu I get Bitmap B even if i've been looking at the .pngs in Bitmap A. This has only started today and persists even after running a repair.

3. Another problem is that lines or symbols in a simple sketch of a fictious shopping centre keep either moving or vanishing! Even if I preview the print I don't always see the missing lines or symbols and yet sometimes when I zoom in, the lines return but not symbols. I have to put them in again. i've only just started laying out the walls so beyond those there's only lifts and escalators in one part of the map.

    You say you've worked around the first problem, which as an install issue may need looking at by TS in the long run. I don't know what caused it.

    I'm having trouble understanding problem 2. CD3 is City Designer and doesn't have dungeon scale symbols or catalogues, so I'm guessing that you generated floorplans from a CD3 building and are having problems with that dungeon style. Which dungeon style did you pick for the floorplans?

    Which style are you using when problem 3 occurs? If you switch off sheet effects in that map can you see everything then?
