Default settings for this event

First control code

When Condes suggests a control code for a new control, it does not suggest numbers lower than this.

Show the event file name under control descriptions

Check this box to add the event file name to the information shown under control descriptions (both when printed on the map and when printed separately). 

You can use this as a way to keep track of different versions of the courses; for example if you add the date or a sequential version number to the file name.

Note: This setting applies for printing via the Printout menu, and exports via the Export menu.  It does not apply for the Course Layout Editor - the file name is always shown in the CLE and when printing directly from the CLE.

Draw dot in control circle

When this option is checked, a dot is drawn at the center of control circles.  The setting can be overridden for each individual course.

Show control number for map exchange control on course part 2 and following parts

Check this box to show the control number next to a map exchange control when the map exchange control appears on part 2 (and following parts) of the course.
