exporting maps with hex grid

[Carl Smeaton]

Hi Everyone

Am trying to use the maps with the hex grid overlaid which works fine on the screen but how do I export the map as a jpg or pdf with the hex grid remaining? The export always seems to remove the grid and just give me the map itself?

ah just tried again with a different browser and it seems to work.  Is there a way to change the size of the text if you select hex labels and also change the numbering system so it isnt a series of 5 numbers?
