Smaller maps into larger maps or larger maps into smaller maps
Hi there.
I was planning to do a series of smaller maps then join them all together on a larger map but I'm having a bit of trouble working out how to do it.
Is it possible?
Or do I need to do a larger map then "chop it up" into smaller maps to do more detail?
My reason for doing this is that I do not need to create a complete world at once but would like to put them all together eventually.
Any help/guidance would be appreciated.
Cheers

I do that when I'm stating a new area map to ensure that the features line up across map boundaries. You can see an example (this is near the north pole so I had to rotate when I pasted):

Anyway, found a recent question from someone else and one suggestion from Monson was to go through the "Draw" drop down menu and selecting "Insert File" which worked (and very easily) however I do have one problem with this, I can't get rid of the "picture frame" from the original map.
Any ideas on this one?
Apologies if these are really basic problems...
Only that black line should still be showing, delete it.
If it isn't there, you will have to show one layer at a time until it reappears, then thaw that layer, then delete it.
I am movnig from Movable Type blog to Textpattern, but my tutorials are still there:

I'll add the link to join maps together.
