NEED HELP - FT PRO to COSMOGRAPHER PRO

Ok - here's the deal. I am working with CC2, FT PRO, AND COSMOGRAPHER PRO (COSMOGRAPHER 2). My problem is this. When I export a map from FT PRO as a cosmographer template, I get two files. One is an icosohedral projection in bitmap form - and the other is a CC2 (.fcw) file. Bare in mind that this is the first time that I have ever tried integrating Cosmographer and FT PRO - despite having owned both for around two or three years now (been mostly into Fractal Terrains). Ok - so - when I open the exported CC2 (.FCW) file - I get only a blank icosohedral planet hex map, but NO terrain image at all - just the template (BLANK). Ok - so - what am I doing wrong - and/or - what do I have to do to get the FT PRO image to show up behind / with / as part of the planet hex map template?

After opening the map in CC3, (hide all layers except STANDARD), use numerical edit on the "broken image" image, and browse to the image file. This will insert the image, keeping the position and size of the original.
Also note that this only works on the images inserted by the FT Pro export. It does not work with regular images inserted inside CC3 in the regular fashion.
