Highlighting map area

I have imported my map animation segment successfully. For a portion of my movie, a major fwy next to my subject travel animation is an important feature to highlight to the viewer. Is there a way to emphasize an area like a freeway with a static overlay? I tried tracing the freeway over an image of the map and exporting it as a transparent image, and selecting it as the custom image for a symbol. That was successful, but the imported image was too small. I essentially want to import a transparent image, position it on the map with the ability to adjust its size and lock it in place. Any ideas?

Thank you!

Alex

    Hi Alex, thanks so much for your feedback and this does sound like a useful feature to have. Right now though this is not supported but I will keep this in the back of my mind and hope to find the time to implement this soon.

      Roger that boss! For wildlife tracking and management it is helpful to point out freeways, dangerous areas and wildlife crossings with their footprint relative to the animals tracking. Niche request :) appreciate you storing the acorn for later!
