Hello,

I create a route for MapPoint and add some waypoints there based on locations. When route is drawn I would like to see some specific text above each waypoint of the route. If it is possible I would like it to look more or less like text balloons above separate push pins with option "geoDisplayName".
Currently just the small boxes with numbers are drawn above like "1", "2"..."N".

Thanx in advance,
Rodion

You can't get rid of the small boxes, the route will always have them.

However, you could add pushpins at each waypoint location and have the balloon name showing.

Note that if you actually get rid of the route, then you could have your own numbered pushpins with custom symbols, depending on how much text you are wanting to show, you might even consider having a custom symbol with that text.

I our system we have an option to show route or not, thus we cannot get read of it. However I will try to put pins on that places. Hope it won't look too ugly...
