Red Fenlon Trees

Joachim de Ravenbel · May 2009

HI,

I've got this funny thing : every time I try to use a Fenlon Style tree in any map not created from the Fenlon Template, all my trees symbols and forest tools turn pink/red (183). Even the background of the forest tool.
I even tried to use a PART to insert the symbols from a template map. They show green in the template map but turn again red after insertion.
Any hint? Thanks.

The Fenlon style uses a custom color palette as opposed to the default CC3 color palette. If you use the Fenlon symbols in a non-Fenlon-style map, it's going to mess things up because the custom Fenlon palette changes the pinks/reds of the default palette to new colors. You might want to try saving a copy of the custom palette from a Fenlon-style map, then going in and attaching that palette to your non-Fenlon map. You can do that in a Fenlon map by going to the Select Colors dialog box and then in the non-Fenlon map, File -> Drawing Properties and on the Drawing Presets dialog box that pops up, look under Custom Palette to change the palette. I recommend reading these topics in CC3 online help first though: Understanding Colors in CC3 http://www.profantasy.com/cchelp/understanding_colors_in_cc3.htm Select Color dialog box http://www.profantasy.com/cchelp/hlp_cmd_colordlg.htm and Drawing Properties http://www.profantasy.com/cchelp/drawing_properties.htm

Hope that helps!

Oh thank you, I thought my files were somehow corrupted. I don't really need to change anything because there are varicolor symbols but it eases my mind. Thanks again.
