World In A Day question
I'm following Sue's World In A Day (issue CA155) pdf and am close to the end. I'm colouring contours in CC3+ now (see image). However I can't seem to figure out how to fill in each contour--I either end up with just the line changing colour, or creating a shape that fills it all in, hiding the other contours. I've tried different line and fill styles.What am I missing?

Think I figured it out...
Everything is ok?
If not, share the FCW and we'll see if there's a problem with the way it's been exported.
Figured it out--needed to make a second sheet on which to place the filled contours, placed below the Land sheet in the drawing order. Then select colour, change properties on the contour, select the colour, "fill style solid", "line style solid", and "move sheet" to the filled contour sheet, which was set to hidden so it would disappear on each redraw, leaving just the unfilled contours. Change colour, repeat, and got there!
I cheesed on the frame--just made a huge rectangle over the whole map with the rectangle tool, changed properties (line width to 250), and outlined in black
😁
Here's the result
Nice work! :D
Nothing gives one as much pride as being completely stymied and frustrated, and then figuring it out!
