Or I suppose as a work around I could do all the drawing in your program, export to a graphic file then use another program to add annotations, once I have the size I like. |

Re: TFT Map Maker
Yes, that's probably the best way to get fine-grained control over the process. It also makes it easier to add things like place names and special notes. But if I can get at least the basic annotation function in I'll do it. It would be nice to have basic stuff like door information as part of the map file, instead of spread over two or more different files.

I had been wondering how to easily draw a horizontal wall and what use the skip-line might have. This discussion killed 2 birds with 1 stone! My request: Allow some "free-hand" drawing of lines and shapes that don't snap to the hex-grid. Let the width of the lines be variable/configurable. Also, a "fill" function would be nice in conjunction with this. The "fill" would fill an area bordered by these "free-hand" lines and the hex-grid lines and/or the area between just "free-hand" lines.

For me, it's sufficient to have a base map file, save it as an image, then use another drawing program to add labels, a compass rose, lines and arrows, etc. Thanks again for making your program available to all of us! |
