I cannot hide default assets

Since I downloaded some custom assets I wanted to remove others I would definitely not use in this map (arabia by chan, gothic horror, tang dynasty) so I un-tick them, a warning pops up about closing and reopening the map after saving and I do just that. Issue is when I go back in, the boxes on these assets are still ticked. So far I have tried

  1. "Save as" from the menu drop-down
  2. Save from the bar to its right

both to no avail.
What am I doing incorrectly?

Røst - A new Viking land for my homebrew campaign

I'm working on a new map for my Viking world, Røst. Do you have any suggestions for improvements? Something feels a bit off. It's quite a small island.

How do I print my map to full scale?

So I have a map that I exported into a png and a jpg but when I go online to print it on 20x30 and 24x36 poster paper is cuts off almost 1/3 of my map. How can I print the map in it's entirety?

First time working on a world map for my D&D world, and I was wondering what y'all thought about the mountains and river placements. Still a WIP.

The map isn't finished yet, and all the land colors are the climate zones for my information so I know where would go what.

Assets of this map of Skyrim

I want to know which are the assets used on this map of Skyrim, or at least assets that looks like these. Mountains, cliffs, et cetera. I would like to know the fonts too. I know the fonts of the city names is that same font from Lord of the Rings' map

I am working on a map for a Digimon inspired campaign, but i would like some help.

This is my first map for my Digimon camping but it feels weird, like its missing stuff and it looks not that good. So i would like some tips and suggestions on how to make it better. Maybe info i don't know about map making or just general tips. PS:Sorry for the quality i could't put the exported image here for some reason.
Edit: for some reason the map did not sent the first time.

Is there an Alternate Direction for the Coastal FX?

Hey there! I'm new to using Wonderdraft and so far this software is amazing! Crazy how easily I can create maps now. I do have a question regarding the coastal fx. I noticed that I need to dial the Coastal FX Distance way up just so they would appear on map.

I was wondering if there are features or addons that can make these coastal fxs contour along the edges of the actual landmasses instead of the horizontal dashes? Something like the picture I added below.

Could need some help!

Thanks!
