Can I shift the projection to make it polar centric
Part of a project I am working on has an extensive amount of stuff at the poles of my world, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to shift the map north/south so I can see my polar landmass without a bunch of projection distortion.
Is there anything I can do?
Thank you!

It's not clear to me at least exactly what you want to do when you say "how to shift the map north/south so I can see my polar landmass without a bunch of projection distortion."
FM doesn't support map projections. You'd likely need something like ArcGIS for that.
What you might be able to do if you need a top down projection is view the world in the globe tool (View -> Show in Globe from the menu), capture a screenshot from the desired perspective, paste that into FM, and then trace over it with the polyline tool to re-create your continent(s) in a new map.
