Catalog Confusion
For some reason my base catalog for a dungeon I'm drawing is not the dungeon symbol catalog, it is the cosmographer catalog. And it doesn't even seem to be the full cosmographer catalog either. I can still find images I want by digging but I should be able to pull them up with the press of a button right? How do I fix this?

You may have clicked the cosmographer icon on the top button bar (near the CC3/DD3/CD3 buttons). In which case try clicking the DD3 button and then the appropriate catalogue button.
If it opens the dialog box, you should see a list of available catalogs, based on the symbol filter setting. Sometimes, this is stuck on DD Pro even though you're using a DD3 dungeon style. Happily, there's is an easy fix (actually, there are several, but here's one of them).
Try this:
- Click Advanced >> at the bottom of the dialog box.
- Type * in the Catalog setting filter field.
- Type DD3 in the Master filter field, and then click the Find now button next to the field.
- Click OK.
There are other methods, including a simple right-click on the Symbol Style Toggle button (I have mixed results with this sometimes) and making changes directly to the Master Filters (Symbols>Master Settings Filters from the menu bar or from the right-click I just mentioned). The above is a sort of middle-ground solution. If you want to learn more about master filters, how they affect your maps, and how to set and save filters, check out p. 67 of the CC3 User Manual or p.83 of the CC3+ User Manual.The dialog box expands to show the advanced settings.
The catalog list on the left changes to display all the DD3 symbol catalogs.
The dialog box closes and the symbol catalog changes to a DD3 style.
I hope that helps.
