Hello all,

Sorry if this question has an answer in the existing documentation but
I've been struggling for days and can't find a solution.

I'm trying to render a city points layer on a regional-level map. I want
point markers to be placed for all of the cities which are important
enough to get labels, but no markers for unlabeled cities.

If I use a layer of type "point", I get markers for all of the points,
which I don't want. The documentation says that for annotation layers,
"Annotation means that a label point will be calculated for the
features, but the feature itself will not be drawn although a marker
symbol can be optionally drawn", but I can't seem to get it to draw the
markers.

What am I doing wrong?

G.
