Removing Pin/Locations

[Christopher Kubasik]

Hello,

Thanks for making this great product!

A question:

When I zoom in on an urban environment for 200m hexes, the map populates with dozens of location pins for stores, hotels, gas stations, and the like.

Is there any way to remove these pins and locations?

Thanks!

Brilliant! 

I was using roads, but OpenTopo should work well enough.

Thanks so much!

PS it would be great if there was a printer friendly version (like Roads) without pins available.

Another question:

As far as I have been able to figure out so far, I can only export a map based on the size of my screen. (What I see on my screen is what gets saved and exported.)

This matters because I want to have my hexes (at 200m a hex), which means I'm zooming in tight on the area to have the hexes show up. However, I want a much larger area that I can print out.

Is there any way to a) have hexes, and b) have a larger area exported than is visible when one is zoomed in tight enough to see the hexes on the screen?

Thanks so much!

Sincerely,

Christopher
