1. Use the address search bar to locate the property or area where you want to add the shapes.
2. Click the toolbar icons on the right-hand side to draw a shape or line, or add text and pin markers on the map.

Edit the fill and stroke colours
There are three ways to choose a customised colour for the markups and annotations you’ve added on the map:
Choose a custom shade from the gradient tool
Manually enter the hex code
Select one of the standard colours
1. For polygons, rectangles and circles, you can modify the opacity level of the fill colour.
You can even set it to zero to remove the colour, leaving only the stroke or outline as seen in the sample image above.
2. For lines or multi-path lines, you can change the colour and adjust the opacity level.
3. For text labels, you can change their fill and stroke colours.
