v2.24.0 · September 30, 2026

Help

  • NewHelp is built into the editor: search and read how-to articles without leaving your map, from the new Help button or the “?” next to export, sharing, scale levels and fog.
  • NewEvery help article is also on the web at hexermap.com/help, and you can tell us whether it helped.
  • ImprovedWhat’s new now lives in the same window and loads faster.

General

  • ImprovedYou may now use exported maps commercially; the help center explains what needs crediting.
  • FixErasing a hex, or deleting or cutting a selection, no longer reveals it to players on a fogged map.
  • FixCutting and pasting an area keeps the connections between hexes inside it.
  • FixThe player Hex Key no longer lists Secret point-crawl locations or ones hidden from players.
  • FixUndo no longer reverts map settings, the map’s name or the party marker.
  • FixCtrl+Shift+Z redoes on Windows and Linux, and Ctrl+Z while typing undoes your text, not the map.
  • FixOn the free plan, maps no longer stop saving after adding a third scale level or a party marker beyond the 3-token limit; both now show a lock instead.
  • ImprovedThe travel heatmap shows costs with at most one decimal.
  • ImprovedThe keyboard shortcuts list now includes every tool and the Select tool’s keys.
  • ImprovedThe eyedropper button now shows on phones and tablets, where it is the only way to pick terrain from the map.
