Campaign Cartographer 3 - Cant delete anything in the map
I have a problem, when I try do delete fx a mountain then I select it (square appears around it) and then when I hit the Erase button, nothing happens. It seems I have ALLOT of problems with buttons not working in the program. Anyone know if I am doing something wrong?

- Click Erase.
- Select the entity you want to erase.
- Right-click the mouse.
- Select Do it from the pop-up menu.
For more information, see page 3 of The Essentials guide that came with CC3.Cheers,

- Select Tools>Options from the menu bar.
- Check the box for Enable left button pre-selection.
- Click OK.
There's still a trick here, though.In the upper right, you'll see some Selection options.
This will let you choose entities before clicking an editing function, such as Erase.
To use edit commands with the pre-selection option:
- Select the entities you want to edit.
- Right-click the mouse.
- Select Do it from the pop-up menu.
- Click the function you want to apply (e.g. Erase).
There are other options you might want to explore as well. They may remove the step about the pop-up menu, though I'm not sure if or how they apply when using pre-selection. In the Options dialog box, there's a button called Select method. The help file is actually fairly helpful. You can open option-related help from within the Options dialog box.Honestly, though, I really do recommend giving the CC3 method of CLICK FUNCTION-THEN-SELECT-ENTITIES a try first.
I hope that helps,

As mention by the other folks, the command sequence differs in CC3 than that used by paint programs due to the CAD engine it runs on.
I suggest going to your regstration page at Profantasy and downloading the CC3 manual and do the tutorials in it.
