Weird stuff is happening to my Merelan City file.
1. Adjusting Sheet effects has no effect, even after refresh.
2. When I just tried to export it to a rectangular JPEG (something I've done at least a hundred times by now) I gave it a name, clicked save, then was prompted for the name again instead of the coordinates for the first corner. When this happens clicking anywhere causes the Save as box to come up again - and I try again with the same result - and so on - around and around in a loop just like that.
I closed it, reopened it, and it seems to be working all right again.
The thing is that its not the first time this has happened, and I'm wondering if anyone else has had one or both these problems.

I have one map exported from Fractal into CC3 and the climate and temperature layers overspill the map. If I try go into those layers and edit it just crashes.
Me thinks it is something we have to expect with CC3 is that sometime the program just wants to do what it wants.
Have you tried using CC3+?
I think with the map I exported I put noise for the temperature and it formed like 20 000 entities for each of the temperature and rainfall. Resulting in poly's that have irregular shapes that cause the problem.
And I've been thinking about this since I made my first post. Maybe we all get different little quirks happening because we all have very slightly different systems (especially with regard to Windows!)
I don't have similar folder and file names, but its still happening to me.
When my Windows computer starts acting flaky, I do either a restart or a shutdown.
I've had to deal with 'lowest bid' computers on almost every job I've been on. So I would try a restart or shutdown. If you try a shutdown, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
I rarely do a shutdown unless I am getting lots of weird Windows things going on. That does a reset for everything. A restart doesn't typically re-load every dll or startup program. So I don't do a restsrt unless i feel its necessary.
Even so, I'm still thinking that Win 10 may be the problem. It certainly knows how to press all the wrong buttons with my Photopiant programme. That one doesn't mess around doing interesting, amusing and sometimes irritating things. It just crashes without any warning.
It never ever used to do that before Win 10.
Its been based on NT, not ms-dos, for several versions now. Thats one big reason its harder for older software to work on it.
The whole world must be full of coders trying not to tear their hair out whenever MS coughs up another change to their OS. I can well understand all these people that prefer MAC
