More videos are always welcome. We all have different ways of presenting things, and there are lots of topics out there not covered by anyone yet. And time is always an issue for us all, so the more people making videos, the more topics can be covered in a reasonable time.

It could very well be that queue causing issues. Technically, a the dropbox folder is no different from any other local folder, but the dropbox software continuously monitors that folder to be able to synv changes. And whenever it needs to sync changes, it will need to lock the files (it cannot let a file get overwritten while int he process of syncing it, that would corrupt the sync). So when you don't have a queue, the sync is always completed between saves, but with lots of things to do, dropbox may keep the lock on the file for a longer time.

Welcome back to the future, where people use the magic of technology to see as well during nighttime as day.

You can still use html if you switch to the Wysiwyg editor. If not, you'll just have to put the hi-res link below the image instead.

Due to the way fill styles are defined on a per map basis in CC3+, old maps won't automatically have new fill styles.

Use Draw -> Insert file, and pick a new map that does contain the style. Now, with the map to insert on your cursor, simply hit Esc, and the fills will be inserted, but not the map itself.

Well, as the Tome itself states in the introduction, it is written for intermediate to advanced users. It does assume some knowledge of the basics of cc3+, and relies on the user having worked through the tutorials in the manual first, and probably worked a bit on their own before diving into the Tome.

Also understand that the tutorial is written for that particular map in mind, it is extremely difficult to figure out all the ways a user may want to do things differente from the tutorial and reference those, that would also make the tutorial extremely bloated. The goal of the tutorial is to teach the user various techniques based on the requirements for that map.

It's the snap setting. Snap and Cursor snap is on, but for some reason, no grid is selected. This basically causes everything to snap to 0,0 and nowhere else.

Right click the snap button in the lower right, and click on one of the existing snap grids in the list (or create a new one)

The change doesn't change anything in the actual map, just changes some parameters for how CC3+ does the rendering of it.

The setting is persistent in CC3+ until you close and reopen the program, so it will affect any maps you open in that instance of CC3+.

To always have it load for a particular map, you can put DELAYDRAWSYM 0 into the OnOpenMacro of the map file. (Obviously, this will keep it active for the lifetime of the instance and not just for that map)

That CAD Blocks site has a lot of good stuff. I've added it to the list in the Free Symbols resource thread.

These CAD blocks are actually ready to use symbol catalogs, which is very neat. I first thought I would have to resort to just copy/paste from the drawing, but load them up as a symbol catalog, and they show up as proper symbols.

With the exception of Symbol Set 1 & 2, you'll find the entire list in the Tools menu -> Add Ons

Only way to check SS1 and 2 is to go into the new map wizard, and under overland and dungeon respectively, see if you have templates for these.
