Fixing up drawings


You may have deficiencies in your scanned or imported images, such as incorrect registration, or wrong sizing so they don't match your other drawings. We recommend you use an extra Transform-type node to fix such problems as early as possible.

For example, if you have a drawing of a character that is 4 fields in height, that should have been drawn 5 fields in height, you would use a Scale of 125% to make the drawing and its field chart larger. Or if you have a drawing of a character that should be 1 field to the East to register correctly, you would use an E/W Move of 1.00E.

For example:

A Transform node has been added to fix up a deficiency in the drawing of the street.

The reason we recommend you use one of the Transform-type nodes is because they work in the same way as fixing up a drawing by hand: you move the image relative to the camera.
