Usage

Displays multiple locations (no longer any upper limit) on a large map of Dereth given specific coordinates. You can use either upper or lower case letters (e, w, n, s or E, W, N, S). If the marker is blank, the "Large" marker will be used, if a caption is specified it will create a pop up label when the mouse hovers over the location and if the location is clicked the user will be sent to a page with the same name as the caption. Note that because the coordinates need to be transformed into a point on the map if a coordinate or direction parameter is missing or malformed the page will not render correctly.

For a smaller map that displays one to four points use Template:Map Point.

You can create new markers if desired, create a 9x9 pixel png image. If the icon doesn't cover the entire area, make the surrounding pixels transparent (with GIMP, Layer>>Transparency>>Color to Alpha, set white to alpha and save). And if the nontransparent bits are smaller than 9x9, center the image. Name the file "Map Point <Name>.png" and upload it and simply refer to it as <Name> (for example, Map Point Large.png is referenced as Large).

The default map is Image:Point Map 512.jpg however you can optionally specify another 512x512px image to use as the map adding the optional parameter Base Map = Name.jpg.
