As I’ve learned, CAD software works opposite of the way you are probably used to working with most desktop applications (at least on Windows). In some cases, there is a level of precision that is required in order to accomplish a task. While some people report having no problems at all picking up the tool, for most, there is a learning curve you have to both unlearn old habits and pick up new ones. Modern User Experience Designers have made selecting objects on a screen very easy often times, you only need to click within the vicinity of an object in order to select it.Īnd, what I learned this weekend, is that that is one of the reasons why you fail when you try to do just about anything in Campaign Cartographer.īefore you learn to do anything in Campaign Cartographer, you have to remember a few things: You move the mouse to the icon that you want to open, or move, or delete you select it by clicking on it and then you do some action. When you think about it, it’s like picking things up with your fingers. Selecting something on a screen by pointing and clicking is a very common activity that you probably do hundreds of times a day on a computer.

This past Sunday I intended to start making some maps instead of making maps, I learned an awful lot about how to select objects on a map…and I’m going to share what I learned with you.
My guess is that you don’t either and if the simple things aren’t simple, you’ll get frustrated and give up on Campaign Cartographer and miss out on the beautiful maps you could produce with it. Why am I telling you this? Because when I want to do something as basic as select a symbol or other entity on a map, I don’t have a lot of time to mess around.
The team has been practicing about 12 hours a week for the past month. His team placed in their regional competition and are going to the state competition on February 7th. He’s competing this year in FIRST Lego League with 7 other boys from his school. My oldest boy is a geek like his dad – he’s getting into Tabletop Roleplaying Games, I have to stay on my toes to beat him at Dominion or Netrunner, he’s into robots, and does some programming.
