And here comes the million dollar question: WHY does the customer not want to use BG images????

Only issue I can see, is that they have to change the image if they need to change the scale of the map, ie. make it contain more..

HI Paul,

I had that in mind - but how to arange an icon to be "in front" or behind
another icon?
As far as I know InterMapper has no such feature of grouping Icons to a
shape or organize layers.

The wish is to have a simple box or circle around a group of icons.

Ciao,
Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Create you own Icons.  (Icons on Maps)

You can make some very interesting maps with custom icons on a
background image.

We have a "summary" map were all the icons are geographical portions
of a street map.  As the statuses of the different areas change, the
street map itself changes.  Very nice for figuring out the scale of a
problem.

Hi together,



I have been asked by a customer to add rectangles and circles into a
map.
The customer wants to use the for “optical grouping” of shapes.



For a rectangle I have a solution with for very small circle icons I
attach
together as a rectangle – so it´s not one object – but a good “Plan
B”.



But I have no solution for the circle.



The customer does not want to use Background images – they just want
to have
simple object in the map like the TEXT that can be added at any
point.



Has anyone a good hint?
