Map Drawing

Supercell Wx can draw annotations directly on the map: freehand strokes, lines, circles, rectangles, and distance measurements. Drawings are rendered on the map for each map pane.

Opening the Draw Tools

Open the Draw toolbar from the map pane context menu (right-click the map and choose Draw). The toolbar docks on the map edge; use Pop-Out on the toolbar header to float it, or - to hide it.

Tools

Tool

Description

Off

Disables the active draw tool. Map pan and zoom behave normally.

Pen

Freehand drawing on the map.

Line

Straight line between two points.

Circle

Circle from center and radius.

Rect

Axis-aligned rectangle from two corners.

Meas

Distance measurement between points. Each endpoint is an anchor that can be dragged to adjust the measurement.

Erase

Remove annotations by clicking or dragging over them.

Hide / Show toggles visibility of all drawings on the active map without deleting them. Clear removes every annotation on that map pane.

Style

  • Brush size — Choose a preset width or Custom and use the slider.

  • Color — Opens a color picker for stroke color.

  • Fill shape — When enabled, filled circles and rectangles use the selected color.

Map Interaction

When a draw tool other than Off is selected:

  • Use the active tool with the left mouse button on the map.

  • Hold Ctrl and left-click drag to pan the map without switching tools.

  • Right-click drag still rotates the map (see Initial Setup).

Context Menu

The map pane context menu includes Draw with a check mark when the toolbar is open on that pane. Opening Draw on another pane switches the toolbar to that map.

Persistence

Draw tool state (selected tool, brush, color, visibility, and panel layout) is saved per session. Annotations belong to the map pane where they were created.
