What I don't understand is how do the layers(categories) affect how cc3+ works? How do the layers affect how we draw our maps within the program? On top of that, the layers themselves can get confusing, because some things can belong to more than one layer, or category. and that lakes, rivers, streams, oceans and seas belong in the 'water/rivers' layer(or category), cities, ruins and bridges would belong to the building/structures layer, trees, bushes and plants belong to vegetation, etc. I understand that for cc3+ the layers are categories. using the anatomy drawing as an example, I'm trying to figure out where the layers come in, how they work. It's the aspect of the layers in cc3+ that kind of confuses me.
I think if the sheets as the different transparencies that make up the whole. with the base skeleton, then adding the different systems until you have a whole, complete person. I liked the analogy the anatomy drawing with the transparencies showing the different 'layers' of the human body.
" I completely understand what the sheets do, and basically understand how they work. There maybe other newbies that could benefit from my confused brain. So I copied my reply there, and I'm reposting it here. Which is where my questions bordered on unfair for the thread. Well, the discussion turned in the direction of sheets and layers. I am completely, and thoroughly impressed with Shessar's ability to make realistic cliffs, riverbeds and the like, and was asking about the process, as I want to be able to do the same with some of my maps. and my questions could possibly lead to an in depth discussion that detracts from the original purpose of the other discussion. It's just that the thread is in the show and tell section, where we are supposed to be discussing the maps themselves, suggestions for improvements, that type of thing. Not that I was being unkind or anything! And I'm sure Shessar is fully capable of answering my questions if my gibberish can be understood. I ended up plaguing Shessar with a set of questions on one of the show and tell discussions that I realized, after the fact, was kind of unfair.
