Resizing the map
Hi!
While drawing my map i decided that it needs more space, so i resized the Map-Border Layer to the desired size.
The problem that I now have that I can draw on this new area on some layers (i.e. Roads and Rivers) but on some others I
cant (i.e. Terrain). Are there any other "hidden constraints" that i need to rescale? To be honest I still dont get that drawable
area concept yet.
I also have a second question: I scetched some Political Borders on a new sheet using paths. No I would like to draw a filled
polygon for every country (to use an Edge Fade Inner effect on it). I was really surprised that the polygon drawingtool does not have
a trace option to follow my scetched lines. Is there another option to make the polygon follow the path?
cheers,

edit: I just found one entity on the map borders layer that wasnt resized. now it works. so i only need help with the second issue

lefthand toolbar. Those tools have Trace, the polygon tools on the right toolbar don't. Why not is a mystery to me.
If the style you're using has ready-made border drawing tools, you can also find them on the menu bar under Overland -> Border
