How to change Placemarks labels in Google Earth

When you edit a Placemark, you are able to change the label for that just by typing in the Name Field. You can even change other features of placemark for a label, by choosing the style and color tab from the dialog box of “Edit Placemark”. If you want to set the color, you need to click on the Color swatch and select color using the standard color selectors. You can even select preset colors in several ways. When you choose this color, Placemark label updates before the dialog box of Edit is closed.

In order to change labels display size, you need to enter a value in the scale category. After this, click on the scale button and use slider to adjust the size of the label that you want.

You can even choose a custom image for single placemarks as an icon, instead of the default collection of icons available for all placemarks. When users set a custom icon for a single Placemark, there appears a new icon for that Placemark only. User can even set a custom icon for a folder when style sharing is enabled. Any kind of change in the folder applies all the items of that folder. If your Placemark data includes lines, you are able to make use of Line properties from the Style tab, so that you can modify and display mode of line in the 3-Dimensional viewer.

User can even change altitude settings. Altitude values are set around items in a placemark folder using the shared styles and a combination of height settings for all items of a folder. Three options are available for altitude. Applying label, advanced settings and description to a folder offers display characteristics, which differs from the settings applied for individual the placemarks. You can even define a single style for a folder or you can apply style elements to all the items of the folder, if you want them to have the icon, line and label appearance.

By clicking on Share Style button, you enable style sharing for all items of a folder. If you position various altitude options for each item of that folder, altitude option for that placemark folder points to a setting of “mixed modes”. If you change the altitude settings as well as the style for a folder, style sharing is automatically disabled for that particular folder.

In Google Earth, though you have cleared all the search results, you can again view them by saving them. You just need to drag and drop your search result item from the results panel within places panel. You can even save your image in the resolutions like 1000 pixels and screen.

Google Earth is a beautiful digital globe on which people can fly around the earth. People can even zoom in on its key features. Google held a contest to present scientific results making use of a data format and KML. Google Earth datasets comprises of three spatial and temporal dimensions.

I highly recommend the Google Software Pack. It comes with a lot of great software that is all FREE. You can also pick and choose which of the software products you want to download. You don't have to download them all. If you have a Mac or you don't want the Google Software Pack for some reason you can download it directly from the main site.
