Heraldic CA15 - Contours Problem

Hello hive mind. I am doing some shields using CA15 but i have a little problem. When I place aCharge the black contours did not appear, and because of it I loose a lot of detail. How can I solve it?

Here is a picture

    Looks like a sheet order problem. If you look at the yellow regions, you also see that they overlap the border of the shield.
    Make sure that the OUTLINE sheet is higher in the drawing order than DESIGNS, and that no other sheets containing obstructing entities appear above these in the drawing order.

    Thank you. I will check.
  • Ok... now how can I insert my shield in a map? What I did in the other post was do the shield in the map but this lead to the above problem. Now I have done then on an CA15 archive but dont now how to insert...

    Simply copy it to the clipboard and paste it into the other map, or use Insert File from the draw menu.

    But you will probably run into sheet order problems again. When you insert it into a map, the sheets used by the sheet does not exist beforehand, so they are created automatically. However, CC3 does not know where the sheets belong in the sheet order, so it places them on the top of the sheet order, which is probably fine, but not necessarily in the correct internal order for the shield. What's more, if one of the needed sheets does exists already, it is probably way down in the sheet order, so you may need to make sure all required sheets appear in the correct order. The LIST command should reveal most of the details about the entities in the shield (except for the charges themselves. They are multi-sheet symbols, appearing on the DESIGNS and the OUTLINE sheets.)
