Properties

Figures, text blocks, images, and links to other maps are essentially one type of object on a map. Therefore, the properties of these objects are the same.

The properties of these objects are displayed in the Properties panel:

The following sections are available:

• Geometry — see Map Object Properties.
• Alignment — see Map Object Properties.
• Style — type of the geometric figure.— For a rectangle, you can set the corner radius.— For a polygon, you can set the number of vertices.— For a star, you can set the number of vertices and the internal radius.
• — For an arrow, you can set the type and size of the tip.
• — For a tunnel, you can set the radius of the side part.
• Background color — the fill color of the figure.
• Background Image — path to a file with an image that will be displayed inside the figure.
• Border — color, stroke, thickness and position of the figure's border.
• Shadow - the color and offset of the figure's shadow along the X and Y axes.
• Text—the following items are available:— Color — text color.— Font — text font.— Padding — indentation of the text inside the shape. For convenience, you can set a general (identical) or separate indent for each edge.— Rotation angle — the angle of text rotation within the shape.— Edit text — when clicked, it opens a text editor for editing and formatting the text that is displayed inside the figure on the map.
• Link to another map —a link to a map that will open when you double-click on the object, or when you select Open from the object’s context menu.
