Numbers Don't Appear on Dungeon Map
If you want to add number labels the easiest way is to add text labels using this button: |CC2TEXT|
A dialog will appear, into which you type your number and hit enter. Then the number should appear on your crosshairs to position wherever you want.
While the number is still on your crosshairs you can alter the alignment by hitting keyboard keys as follows:
Horizontal alignment:
- C = centre
- L = left
- R = right
Vertical alignment:
- M = middle
- T = top
- B = bottom
If the number is too large or small, before you place it hold down the CTRL key and move the mouse until it is the right size. Set your size with the first number and stick with that size.
EDIT: Also do as Steven suggests and check that your TEXT sheet is near the bottom of the list of Sheets and Effects.
