Ok, thanks.

If you want to make the wall thicker, hide all the other sheets and use Change Properties on the wall alone, giving it a wider line width.

If you want to make the sheet effects more prominent (the glows and shadows), you can edit each effect singly to give them larger widths or blurs. To do that, open the Sheets and Effects dialoge and pick the sheet, then pick the effect you want to edit, and click the EDIT button on the right next to the effects panel.

Ah, I see.

Maybe generate a temporary grid using 'Hex or Square overlay' in the Draw menu, and count the squares?

CTRL+Z to undo the grid once you've counted.

This is going to look really great when you're finished, I'm sure :)

Lovely map :)

You can see the details better here than on the FB page.

The fields between H and D have no edge fade on them, but I think that actually enhances the map as a whole - a bit of contrast against all those around with faded edges. It must be one of those very immaculate farms!

Would this work for you?

A single RGB Matrix Process sheet effect on the 'Whole Drawing' level (radio button at the top), with everything set to 1 except the end column.

The only grey I can see in my amazing test map is where the structure symbols are red.

I am surprised it hasn't knocked everything off the edge of the map yet.

Hi Martin :)

That's a really great first map (and I'm not just saying that because you worked my name into the labels).

Hi Viepyr :)

Click the little window as the far right end of the Status Bar (top of the window) where "FS:...." appears.

Click the "Bitmap fills" tab in the dialog that appears, and select the fill you want to rescale from the Fill Style Name dropdown box.

In the "Specifications" sub-panel there is a checkbox called "Scaled" with a "Width" and "Height" specified next to it. Make sure that box is checked and scale the fill according to how many map units wide and high you want it to be.

When you fractalise smooth polygons they become straight ones again, so you will have to make them smooth again if you want them to be smooth polygons.

Hi everyone! :D

In this week's live mapping session Ralf will be taking a look at August's Annual issue - the second part of the E Prybylski overland style, and how to do political overland maps.
