DETAIL MARKER IS ELLIPSE INSTEAD OF CIRCLE

Dave Brach
Expert
Anyone know why when I use Detail Marker-14 and set marker shape to "circle" it shows up as an ellipse instead? I thought maybe this is to accommodate longer strings of text-this actually might be handy, but it's oriented the wrong way for that.....

Dave:

In the Detail Selection Settings dialog box > Marker there are two settings that control the circle's dimensions: the Marker height (second input box) that will change both the width and height, and in the parameters list Marker Width that controls only the width. To get a circle, set both of these to the same value (changing the Marker height will also change the Marker Width).
