Reply to: Map Editor/Properties panel does not appear when I create a new theme map.
February 23, 2016 at 10:59 amIssue resolved, I think.
When opening files I was always choosing Open vs. Edit in XMetal.
Once I chose Edit in XMetal. the Map Editor pod appeared.
As a beginner, I would suggest including a Help note on the difference between these two operations/settings. It seems like the whole session now has more functionality. Now, if I follow the Help “Dita maps” instructions, the Map Editor and Properties tools appear as in the instructions.
