Is there a way to hide pins?

[Sepe]

I would like to be able to toggle pins on/off. Is there any way to achieve this? Any mods or edits?

Bump because I've got the same question.

Did you ever find an answer?

[jonnin]

what are you calling pins?

can't they be toggled at the bottom left?

[Nesano]

I don't see anything at the bottom left to toggle them.

You don't need to toggle them on/off, you simply delete them. Click on them individually to delete after you have placed there whatever you want.

That is actually click on the pin itself, not the name in the list. A delete option pops up.

And that's not what we're asking. We want to hide and unhide all of the pins we've placed.

So yes, we do need to toggle them on/off.

Would that not defeat the purpose of pins tho? I mean they are meant to be there to STAND OUT at you so you don't do an "oopsie" later on.

If they are not meant to be seen to warn you, why even use them?

Lay out a bunch of pins for later and hide them. When you need to see the pins you laid out earlier, unhide them.

I'm not continuing this conversation if it's just going to be explaining why we would need to hide pins.

Nope. I haven't played for a while. I made a quick search and found this mod:
https://github.com/CQUI-Org/cqui

"Map Pinning system enhanced: new pins, long pinlists are now scrollable, right click in pinlist to quickly delete pins, enter key now bound to finalizing a pin in pin creation menu."

Seems to improve pins and UI in general but no mention of hiding or toggling.

Unfortunately, I tried that mod and it broke the game. I don't know if it works now, but now I don't trust it.

2 years later and there's STILL no pin visibility toggle. They've added a toggle for so many other things, but not the most important one for those of us who plan out our district/improvement/wonder placement centuries in advance.

The pins are SO useful as planning tools, but having every tile perpetually covered in pins (until you finally get to build something on the tile) is pretty terrible.

Seriously weird how they made labels for deserts, rivers, etc togglable but still nothing WRT pins.

This solves my quest to find a toggle for map tacks. Quest Failed... move on. Three years as a desirable feature/mod and still nothing, tells me it's a lost cause, unfortunately.

We need this!

Gotta love this thread. It's been necro'd 4 times!

***Note necros don't bother me, I think it's fine to continue a previous discussion of something rather than making a new, because it gives background.***
