Title: Marker Help Please
Post by: RangerX3X on 22 Nov 2007, 16:56:53

I have an empty marker set up as obj3 with this in an associated trigger:

"obj3" setMarkerType "Warning"; deleteMarker "start"; deleteMarker "obj1"; deleteMarker "obj2"; deleteMarker "form"; "3" objStatus "active"

It does what I want it to do; the marker is initially hidden then becomes the warning marker and the other referenced markers are deleted as desired...so no issues there.

What I would like is for someone to tell me how to accomplish this:

I want the marker to be red, a 100 X 100 elipse with the cross fill.

I tried searching for a solution but ended up several times getting very far away from what I was wanting to accomplish.

Would someone with more experience than this please specify how this is done and not send me off on a fishing expedition in the command reference? Thanks.

RangerX3X, do not post consecutively.
If you have something to add to your post after a short period of time modify the post instead of replying to yourself.

Dude, lay off the control trip. It doesn't impress anyone.
