Some Marker Labels not displaying on map
I've been working on a map that has many Markers, all of which have Labels (which appear checked in the left sidebar), I'm pretty sure they were all displaying Labels on the map when I created them.
Today I was adding some addition information to the map and I noticed that some of the Markers are not displaying the Label. I have checked the edit box to ensure I entered something in the Label Box and not just in the Comments.
In my Settings the label field is set to All.
There are about 40 Markers that are not displaying the Label.
FWIW I'm using a free account on a Windows desktop.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Hello. We have updated how CalTopo handles overlapping marker labels going forward as new markers are created. As you zoom in, marker labels will begin to show. We received a lot of feedback about overlapping markers being difficult to read.
If you click "settings" in the upper right, under "show labels" you change this from "non-overlapping" to "all".
We hope this helps.
I have the same problem. Does not matter if "All" or "non-overlapping" is set, nor does zooming in display these labels. If I close all Chrome windows and import the *.json file into a new Caltopo window, all the labels reappear. But panning often causes some to disappear again. The same thing happens in Firefox so it is not a browser problem. I am running Windows 10. The Caltopo app is terrific, but this needs to be fixed - it is quite annoying.
Working on a project today and the issue is still present. Windows 11, Google Chrome. All the settings are as they should be.
I also have the problem where only some of my marker labels show. All the appropriate settings have been made . Looking in Bulk ops, all labels indicate visible I did notice however, that when you click on the print icon, they all appear. Maybe there is something in that part of the program that can be linked to the initial map viewing screen.
I also had the problem of waypoint labels not showing on the map on my iphone, even with the "Show Labels" setting set to All. The fix was to close the map and re open it, then the labels were visible.
Whatever the glitch was, the last few times I went to my map, the labels were there. Hope they stay.
