# Icons

To add one to your Location post, press "Replace Drawing" and click on the map, or search for a location, or enter a latitude and longitude.

{% hint style="info" %}
Icons can work together with [Labels](/locations/labels.md), creating a marker with text under or on it if you wish.
{% endhint %}

### Image

Set the image for your icon. It's best to use an appropriately-sized image. Most image types are accepted.

### Scale

After adding your image, it might render at an unexpected size. Set the size as you want here.

### Opacity

Set the transparency of your icon.

### Rotation

Rotate the icon if needed.

### Position X & Position Y

Adjust the position offset of your icon from the center point horizontally and vertically.

### Anchor

Set the anchor point of the image. Ideal if you are using a custom marker icon is setting this to "Bottom".

### Static Size <sup><sub>*<mark style="color:green;">\[Pro]</mark>*<sub></sup>

This will keep the icon a static real-world size — meaning that its edges will be anchored to the map. You will probably need to play with the scale after selecting this to make your icon the size you want.

### Hover Opacity <sup><sub>*<mark style="color:green;">\[Pro]</mark>*<sub></sup>

Adjust the transparency on mouse hover.
