Choose a landmark's marker

All guides

Every landmark can wear a different marker — the little pin drawn on the map where it sits. The marker sets the shape and size only; its colour comes from the landmark's own colour or its group. Pick a style that suits how important the spot is and how busy that part of the map gets.

Open the marker picker

  1. Open your map in the editor

    Go to your maps, open the map you want to change and select the Landmarks tab.

  2. Expand a landmark

    Click a landmark in the list (or its pin on the preview map) to open its fields.

  3. Find the Marker row

    The Marker picker is a grid of pin styles. Click one and the preview updates straight away.

The marker styles

The picker is grouped into rows. The first row holds the attention-grabbing styles; the middle rows are plain markers in three sizes; the last two rows are the same markers with rounded or square corners.

StyleWhat it looks likeGood for
HiddenNo pin at allLandmarks where the map area itself is the target — the shape stays clickable, but no pin is drawn
PulseA marker with a pulsing ringDrawing the eye to a single key spot, e.g. an entrance or 'you are here'
CirclesConcentric circle markerA soft, decorative highlight
RibbonA ribbon/banner markerFeature spots you want to stand out from ordinary pins
DotA small solid dotDense maps where a full pin would clutter
Small / Medium / LargeA plain pin in three sizesEveryday landmarks — size by importance
BorderA pin with a contrasting borderMaking a pin readable over a busy or similarly-coloured background
PinA classic teardrop pinThe familiar 'map pin' look
Rows prefixed (Rounded) and (Square) are the same set again with rounded or square corners — handy for matching your map's overall styling.

Hidden vs. hide from directory

Choosing the Hidden marker only removes the drawn pin — the landmark's map area stays clickable and it still appears in the directory list. To take a landmark out of the search list and category chips as well, use the Hide from directory tick further down the same panel.

Marker choice is per landmark, so you can mix styles freely — for example a Pulse on the main entrance, plain Medium pins for rooms, and Dots for minor points.
