In Richard Garber's book, his path views include circles and a number depicting the various location events along the player's path. No matter what "view" options I have on (all of them) I can not get my location events to appear on the map. This means I can not find where they are once I have placed them. It leads to lots of problems when they are not quite where I want them. All I can do to adjust their effect is a hit-and-miss approach of increasing or decreasing their radius, with no idea of where they really are. Is there something I don't know about that will let me see the position of my location events?Thanks for any help.thow

Get mstsscrz.zip and run the AE section. This resets a section in the registry that deals with the settings in Activity Editor (hence AE!!)It seems to do the trick..and it's safe..used it myself more than once.You can also go to the registry and do it yourself...
