Alan,
Thanks, I'll sort that out. I probably should have made the pitch et al OOB. If anyone else noticed problems in the urban bit, pm me. Yes, I know the forest really needs a remap.

Re: E. Scot Champs
No problem. Probably OOB not needed as the pitch is surrounded by an uncrossable fence, it's just that I have an anorak-type interest in football stadia, no matter how small, and it caught my eye.

Re: E. Scot Champs
Really enjoyable run on Sunday but could I make a plea for the control numbers on urban areas to have the white outline on them. I wasn't the only one struggling to find the numbers, and it only takes a tick in a box in Condes to fix.

Re: E. Scot Champs
a tick in condes ... and a very careful check of all the numbers to make sure you haven't created any apparent ways through any uncrossable features.

Re: E. Scot Champs
Agreed Graeme. I think it FAR safer not to outlint the numbers.
I always look at every number and try to make it so that it is 1) not obscuring any useful detail, 2) unambiguaous as to which circle it belongs to, and 3) as far as possible on a pale background in that order.
This procedure is not complex and is far less likely to produce a major problem of defining legal routes than the outlined numbers.
I use exactly the same process with forest events where it is generally easier.

Re: E. Scot Champs
One other thing is that putting numbers "out of the way" in fight makes them invisible to colour blind folk. Or so I'm told.
