Hello Mappers, This week we would like to give you some tips to improve your work in Map Creator:
1. Highlight the entire street name
- Press Alt + click on a link
- All links with the same name will be highlighted and can be modified at once
- If you modify in one go, all the attributes that differ along the highlighted links will receive a warning message to avoid an override

2. Modification of Transparency
- Press Ctrl Alt at the same time and – /+ to change the transparency of the roads
Tutorial:
3. Search by coordinates
- Include or copy and paste Lat / Long information into the search field
- When copying coordinates from other platforms always use a (.) or (/) or (,) as separator between degrees and minutes of the unit
Tutorial:
4. Search by Object ID
- Enter poi-id: XXXX for Places
- Enter link-id: XXXX for Roads
- Enter pa-id: XXXX for Point Addresses
- Enter job-id: XXXX for Map Alerts
