The grid reference of an identified point on the area.
Colour undefined.
There is no default OCAD symbol but there are a number of pre-defined text objects.
A text object is a rotatable symbol, it can be rotated with the direction tool and will rotate with the map if the “include symbols” box is checked when the map is turned.
See the text topic for general information.
It is usual to use the grid reference of the main car park, or the centre of the area.
If the map has an inset location map, the grid reference location may be shown with a small triangle.
By using the car park reference you will assist the organiser and competitors, that's nice!
Use the full reference including the 500km letters.
Get somebody else to carefully check the reference, it's easy to get it wrong.
