3.2 Editing Waypoint Styles

The Waypoint Style window can be opened through the Waypoints Editing window, by pressing the button . To
know more about the Waypoint Editing window, see the section Creating, Editing and Deleting Waypoints.
The Waypoint Style window has the following fields:
Visualization Area of Waypoint Text
This field displays how the Waypoint text will be shown in screen. The characteristics of the font used can be
changed through the <Edit Font> button. The background color of the text box is also displayed when this option
is chosen in the styles list.
Options for Text Box
The Options for Text Box are enabled only when the User chooses the Text Box option in the style list. Text box is
a special visualization mode that shows Waypoint comments in multiple lines on the screen. The icons and the text
rotation are not shown in this visualization mode, and only the first line is sent to GPS, because most receivers are
only capable of saving one line.
The Opaque option allows to apply a color background in the Text Box.
The <Color> button allows changing the background color of the Text Box.
The Shadow option allows to apply an 3D effect in the Text Box, with a shaded on background.
The Border option allows to define the thickness and the color of the border line of the Text Box.
