That looks like an interesting map :)

There are lots of different ways of doing a glow, so I will tell you mine, and others will probably tell you theirs. Which you use is up to you.

I would draw the purple polygons with a smooth poly on their own sheet, and on that sheet I would add a reasonably large blur to soften the edge, and then a Blend Mode set to Screen.

If you are interested in creating a heatmap Jason Payne wrote a good article on that not so long ago right here: https://rpgmaps.profantasy.com/overland-heatmaps-with-cc3-by-jason-payne/

It's nearly there roflo. If you erase around the edge of each of the cloud symbols in an uneven way (in GIMP/PS or similar app) so that there are no more sharp edges, and it should work a bit like a PS brush, but in CC3.

Solid 10 is a semi-transparent bitmap fill, which should already exist in the style template (if it doesn't, just shout and I will explain how to get it there). It's intended as a shadow.

That's interesting about the typo. Thanks for letting us now. I will notify Tech Support so that it can be put right for future users.

Type DELAYDRAWSYM and hit enter.

It should be set to 1 by default.

Type 0 (zero) and hit enter.

Then redraw.

Hi Everyone! :D
