This article was previously published under Q135335
SYMPTOMS
When the Map View is Zoomed In to reveal individual street locations,
Road Names cannot be viewed. This is because the text lettering is white
and the background is white.
CAUSE
On the Map tab, when you select Black as the Colored background, Road Names
turn white. When you remove the Colored background, the white Road Names
cannot be viewed because the background color is also white.
RESOLUTION
On the Map tab, located on the Map Display Options menu, change the Colored
background option from black to white.
Road names now display in black on a white background.
MORE INFORMATION
Other colors affect the Road Name functionality. The loss of Road Names
depend upon the color selected. If the Road Name disappears, use the
resolution provided.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Automap Streets
version 4.0 for Windows. We are researching this problem and will post new
information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes
available.
