| How do I turn off the pushpins while retaining the label? | Todd Mitchell | 5/11/12 2:21 PM | I would like to identify locations by text label only, for example "51%," and not pushpins and text.

There are two methods that I know of for removing the icon and keeping the labels. First, you can open the properties of the placemark and click on the push pin in the upper right. This should bring up a dialog box |
