Waypoint display too small

Postby ericromsos » Tue Jan 23, 2007 10:07 pm

On the map view, the labels for each waypoint are too small to read. I am pretty sure that I switched this months ago because they were too big. Can you refresh my memory on how to increase the size of the lettering? Thanks much.

Make sure the layer is active
Draw tab
The little pointy arrow tool
Click the waypoint
Click the font size, under the font name.
Select a larger font.

And, if you have many waypoints you want to change (as long as you want them all the same size, font, color) zoom out so you see all the waypoints, choose the Select tool (Sanaghan's "little pointy arrow" :) ), drag a box around all the waypoints, then make your changes. This will save a lot of time if you have 50 of them to change.
