Newbie Border Question
Hi all,
Just getting back into CC3 after some time away and had a question about borders. I know how to delete (hide) the border, but is there anyway to create/download a new border? I do not have access to photoshop or any other editing program like that and didn't know if there was any native way in CC3 to import a border or create a new border.
Anyone have any idea how to do this? I'm not all that artistically inclined which is why CC3 is really great for someone like me, not sure I'd be able to create my own border, but I could certainly find something I like online. Just didn't know if there was any functionality in CC3 to import a new border.
Thanks in advance!

1. CC3 uses the first entities it finds on the layer MAP BORDER as the limit of the drawing area (for drawing tools that have this option set). For that purpose I usually put a plain, hollow rectangle on the layer MAP BORDER and the sheet BACKGROUND into the map. This will be hidden behind the decorative border and should normally not be changed.
2. Depending on the type of map border you draw, it might not always stretch correctly if you use the map wizard to create non-standard sized maps. Check the help file for the entry to "Map Notes > resize" for a little more on the topic.
