Full Stop Behind Control Number
Check this option if a full stop shall be placed behind each control number.
White Outline on Control Number
This function is only available for ISSOM 2007 and ISOM 2017 course setting projects. Activate this funktion to add white background to your control numbers for better visability.
Be careful not to cover any important map information with the white background.
Connection Lines
Define a distance from the circle to the connection line in this field.
Control Description
Thicker Horizontal Line
Choose between a thicker horizontal line in the IOF Symbol Control Description every third or every fourth line or not at all.
Maximum Length
Define the maximum length of the control description in rows in this field.
Number of Start
Check this option so that the number of the start appears in the control description.
Control Description on the Map
Box Size
Define the size of a box in the control description in this field. Click the Standard button to set the value to 6.00 mm.
IOF International Specification for Control Description 2004: The description sheet boxes should be between 5mm and 7mm.
White Background
Check this option to get a white background behind the control description on the map.
Check the Draw white background even in draft mode option to show the control description with white background also in draft mode. Use this option if you prefer to print your maps in draft mode.
Activate the option, switch to draft mode and move both draft mode sliders in the View toolbar to the right position. 
Select a course and click the Preview button. The course overprint now is transparent, but the white background of the control description is opaque and blocks out the orienteering map.
OCAD does not block out only the control description. Furthermore, OCAD blocks out all objects drawn with this opaque color used in the symbol 760.00 White background. By default it is the color number 203 White background.
Example: If you also like a framing of the control numbers in draft mode, select the symbol 703.000 Course: Control number, edit the symbol and change the color from 204 Purple transparent to 202 Purple. Click on the Framing tab, enter the new Line width (0.2mm) and change the Framing color to the opaque color 203 White background.
Close this dialog. The control numbers have now a white framing.
Add Control Descriptions for All Controls
Check this option to add the control description on the All Controls map, too.
XML Export
Activate this check box to export the relay variation within the XML export, too. This is an extension of the IOF specification.
Continuous Numbering
If the option is set, the numbering for one-man relay will be continuous on the maps for the 2nd and 3rd loop.
