There is also a way to change the font that is used for items on the map. It
allows nodes to appear closer together. It made a HUGE difference on my map.
In you home directory create or edit your .Xdefualts file and add the
following:
*size30Font: 6x11
*size20Font: 6x11
*size10Font: 6x11
*smallFont: 6x11
OVw*submapDialog*XmList*FontList: 6x11
If you have a map open you will need to restart it.

Have you made any changes to any of the app-default settings. One of the
files in the app-defaults directory has a setting that allow you to adjust
the distance between the icons (I think). I might look into this a little
later and let you know if I find anything. If you are going to take a look
yourself, look at the Xnm, OVw files to start with.

I can highlight a section of the map and it will zoom in but the distance it
creates between objects does not treally do me much good on zooming in. It
is still to seperate to be meaningful. And when I draw abox around multiple
devices at that range, it does not show them being highlighted/selected. I
have set the auto layout to off now and am simply trying to select the
distant devices to Hide them then do a show hidden sot hat they appear in
the NOHA but it will not grabt he devices. The end result is that I simply
need to make my location.conf better.
