Hello,
I'm a new user to Mappoint. I own a service company and will be using Mappoint to efficiently route service technicians on daily routes. I have linked Mappoint to Access database and that works great.
My question is this; can the size pushpin name on the map be changed to a smaller size, type, style, or color? Is it posisble to effect this change to the entire dataset? I have found that when viewing the map in a scale that allows me to plan and print maps, many of my pushpin names are "on top" of other names. If I could make the pushpin names a smaller type, then I would be able to see all the names without the names "on top" of each other obscuring the location(s) beneath.
I have noticed that this forum has may advanced folks here, please keep in mind that I'm new to this program and I'm certainly not a developer..

Thanks,

Poolco

Hi,

As far as I know you can not do this. Maybe with programming there could be some workarounds for example custom symbols or so.
