You need to change the scaling of the effect. Just find the effect on the Text sheet, and change the Range of it.

The reason it changed when you rescaled the drawing is that it is set up to be a percentage of the size of your drawing so it can work seamlessly with all map sizes, so when your map got larger, so did the effect.

Your pink poly is on the SYMBOLS sheet, and there are no color key effect on that sheet.

It might also be that you are zoomed to a weird location. Try :CC2ZEXT: or Zoom To all Text (right click :CC2ZEXT: )

(The "Unnamed View" is quite normal, you need to manually create a named view to have anything else)

I can't open your map right now, but check your sheet order. The behavior you describe is exactly what happens when the symbols go to a sheet that is hidden by something else, for example a landmass.

For performance reasons, when you place symbols, they will always appear on top of everything else, but once you change the view in any way, the view is recalculated, and everything goes into the correct position based on sheet order. The fact that the symbols disappear means that they are on a sheet behind something.

Here's the map if anyone wants to check out the details:

You don't need any of the CC3 stuff. A lot of the products will have installers for both CC3 and CC3+, so make sure you get the CC3+ installer for all of those, they should be labeled.

There's no specific order of installation, but you should always install the latest update at the end after installing everything else. This is because it doesn't just update the core program to the listed version, but it also updates all the add-ons at the same time.

Should work now. The file name had a German ß in it, which didn't survive the forum upgrade a few years back properly.
