I also use the mouse wheel a lot, even though it's actually slower than the zoom tools.

However, I was trying your map with the mouse wheel and still couldn't crash it.

I'm hoping that one of the others will try it and be able to reproduce the crash, but since it's New Year's Day it might be a while before anyone else tries.

You have to choose whether you want to group buildings according to where they are, or what they are. My preference is for where, rather than what, since it's easier to avoid putting things on top of one another if you have all the buildings in the block you are working on visible.

It's only a low res screen shot. Here's a closer look.

Sorry Don. I didn't even know that one.

@Traveller Nothing is set in concrete at this stage. I'm considering some kind of mountain ridge symbol as an addition to the bevel effect, so that people who want a bit more than just a bevel can have it. I'm going with dots and circles for structures, though. Anything more detailed than that would look terrible at this scale. Those kinds of things could be included in the regional version of the style, which I hope to do at some point.

Hi Domenic

It might be that you started the map with a different template than the DD3 one. But all is not lost.

This solution can be found in the FAQ list here:

Thank you :)

I do these threads to get a better sense of direction with a style, but if they also help to sell things that's good too.

1. Type SIMPLIFY and hit Return
2. Look at the command line

1. If it's some other figure hit the zero and Return.
2. Hit return if you haven't already

1. And then select the path or straight polygon you want to simplify. The action will be immediate.

Oh look at that! I bet Wyvern has beaten me to it while I was trying to work out how to make the paragraph numbering go right.

Ok. Does anyone else still want the old volcanic texture, and call it "Volcanic 2"?
