Look, I've named the cities in my home-made "Kicking in the Door" scenario...

But when I start the scen the names have disappeared, what am I doing wrong?

Thanks but although that works fine in stock scens, it has no effect in my editor-created custom scens.
At this stage I'm hesitant to call it a bug as it might just be my fault for possibly pressing the wrong buttons in the wrong sequence-
Look, in the big red circle I name the selected hex and tick the 'show on map' box, but when I click 'Apply', the 'show on map' box empties and becomes blank again!
Then when I start to play the scen, hitting 'H' has no effect as no names show anywhere, weird..

It is a little bit odd, but you have to double click on it otherwise it is not gonna work

Nope, not working for me.
When I double click on it, the square gets replaced by a check and it even remains in there, while with only one click it disappears
but it has no effect in the scenario whatsoever, no name shown!

Correction: Now it works, but only if I do it with all hexes in need of a name.
If I just selesct a single one and leaving the others out, it doesn't show up!
Anyway: Thanx for the help!

See if this helps-
Select 'Configure hexes' >
Click on the map hex that you want to name >
Type in the name >
Click ONCE in the 'Show name on map' box (don't double click) >
And then click again in the same box a second or two later >
'Apply' >

And that's a bingo..:)
