Labels - How do I edit them?
|
When I create a link between zones it creates a label. How do I move this label? Or hide it?
Is it possible to create a room associated label (not just text on the map)? |

To make room-associated labels:
1. switch map to Map mode
2. right-click on the room
3. Label / (label location)
The first time, the label is the room name itself.
Repeat the steps 2-3 above and you can modify the text. If you modify the text, you will also set the short-name of the room. |

Ah, thanks!
Is it possible to hide or move the "to zone" labels? I don't _always_ want them to show up ... |

Indeed, sometimes you REALLY need to move them. Like in this case:
And I only managed this solution (which involves modifying some values in the .dbm map file):
If you find this solution acceptable, I can look into the .dbm file and try to remember which values to change. |

As for hiding them, the easiest way is to enter a space, " ", as the name of the exit.
