Watabou City REVISED (annual 157)
The problem lies here:
After converting everything from Line to Path, the river and road were each a single path (2D Polygon) of 0 width.
A 2D polygon isn't a path, it is a polygon. When applying the river draw tool, which is a line-type tool to a polygon, you get weird effects. When a line has a line width, it is shown as a solid entity of that width, but when a polygon gets a line width, it is shown as a hollow entity with an outline of that width.
So why was in converted to a Polygon instead of a Path? This is down to the fact that the river isn't made up from just one series of lines, but they are actually doubled up. This causes CC3+ to see interpret this as a set of lines that goes all the way to the end and back to start again, so since it ends where it started it is interpreted as being a polygon. This means you get a very thin polygon, but a polygon still.
You can easily get this into the desired path by using the :CC2BREAK: command on it. Just place the start of the break at one end of the new "polygon" and the end of the break at the other end. This will basically remove one half of the poly, and leaving behind the line representing the other half as a proper 2D Path.

Making floorplans for houses creates the house but not the floor where to put symbols
That problem occur if you just insert the house image into your drawing instead of the actual house symbol.
There are more information in the symbol than just the image, and CC3+ needs this information to generate a proper floorplan from the building.
The reason you have just a house image and not a house symbol in your map in the first place is most likely through the use of the :ICON_CATALOG: button. When you click this, you can either browse and pick a symbol catalog file (.fsc file), OR you can browse to a folder full of images, pick any image, and then have all the images from the folder showing up in the symbol catalog window. But if you do the latter (pick an image instead of symbol catalog when browsing) it means you will only get them as images, NOT symbols, because the extra information is in the symbol catalog file.
Instead, you should ALWAYS pick a symbol catalog file (.fsc), or just use the symbol catalog buttons in the toolbar as they will load the symbol catalogs properly.
