KML files and google earth.

Post by hms »

harry,
when importing data as a KML file to Google earth, how is the marker size reduced?
Currently they are showing as large green blobs, I would like to reduce them in size as I feel that as smaller blobs I would be able to see my track better.
Had a look on Google for this info but cannot see aything about changing size of the blobs, although there seemed to be something in the API to do with the marker. (That's all above my understanding!)
Regards
Howard

Hi,

LapTimer exports a lot of data that is shown in Google Earth by default. To switch off a detail, check the bar in the left of Google Earth and deselect the feature you want to have hidden. If for example you do not want to see the GPS fixes (= green / yellow / red dots), deselect them:
