Hi, I have another noob question. I want to add a combat display to the toolbar where players deploy pieces and fight battles. I suppose it is considered a map in game terms. I tried to add a map to the Chart window menu both directly and through a tabbed panel, but I can’t find a select button allowing me to load the graphics. Can anybody explain me what I am doing wrong? ![battle map](https://forum.vassalengine.org/uploads/default/original/2X/3/3a680226285d664a69b8e42a81e8b188d94e4aa6.jpeg) ---

You need to define a Map Board for that new Map Window. That is where you add the graphic image file (e.g, - a PNG or JPEG). It looks like you’ve already done that with your Central Italy map. Cheers, Jim Hunter. ---
