[Map] → [Managing Map Data]

 

·Map data can be nested by dragging and dropping the list options over each other. When a map has “child maps” (nested map data), all of them will be moved at the same time.

 

1.Move the cursor over the map data to be moved and begin dragging.

2.Move the cursor over the destination map data or project option, and drop when the option text is highlighted.

·The Shift command moves everything in the map. When the option is selected, the “Map shift” window will be displayed. Choose the direction to shift in (Up/Down/Left/Right) under [Shift Direction] and number of tiles to shift under [Tile Count], and click the [OK] button. Parts of the map that are shifted outside of the map dimensions will be wrapped around to the other side.

 

·Map data with child maps will have a [+] symbol next to their name. When clicked, the symbol will change to [-] and show the map data nested directly under it. Clicking it again will change the symbol back to [+] and hide the nested map data.
