CC3+ Missing 13th Age, Satellite Terrains & Jonathan Roberts Symbol Sets

I just purchased CC3+ and its a little weird lol. Still use to the CC3 classic. I like to use some of the 13th Age & Satellite terrains from that annual. Also missing the Jonathan Roberts Symbol and Terrain Sets as well. I just converted a map of mine into CC3+. Is there a way to include the 13th Age, Satellite and Jonathan Roberts to CC3+? How would i go about that? Thanks!
When I import different symbol sets into my current map, say I am working in a Herwin Wielink map and I wanted to use CC3+ default symbols, they're there but I am missing the terrain textures. Any idea how to import them into the same drawing?
Also, there is a tool top next to my cursor, how do I toggle that off?

To import textures, you can either go to tools -> Import bitmap fill styles. Just browse to the proper folder (remember that CC3+ stores its resources in c:\ProgramData\ProFantasy\CC3Plus by default, and not in the installation directory (under Program Files (x86)) that CC3 did). Make sure you browse to the CC3+ files and not the CC3 ones. While the CC3 ones will work, that is just going to make things much more difficult in the future when you no longer have CC3 at all, only CC3+ (and at this point, the reasons for having CC3 installed when you have CC3+ are very few).
For the other settings in the dialog, just make sure 'Create other resolutions' are NOT checked, and path is set to make relative to CC3 path. [Some dialogs in CC3+ still say CC3 for things, but it still refers to CC3+, nothing in CC3+ cares about CC3]
The other option to import fill styles is to go to Draw -> Insert file, and inset the correct style file from @System\Fill Styles. (@ refers to the CC3+ data directory). If there isn't a fill style file available, you need to follow the above procedure.
Note that importing fill styles will not make drawing tools for them, but they are available in change properties and the fill style dialog.
Try the following: Open the Symbol Manager and find the old style symbol in the list. "Rename" it to something else (perhaps adding a letter or number at the end). Then try adding the new style symbol to the map again.
I tried to import a CC3+ file with just the symbols I wanted to use from the CC3MS catalog. Once I imported them in it changed the symbols to the CC3 Filled Catalog. So it works fine when I do a new file but on the current map I am working on, there is an error or some sort.
