Hi all

Long, long time ago, before mapInfo introduced the halo function for round
mapinfo symbols,  I routinely overlay a layer of empty white dots  (ie white
version of:  <<...>> ), overtop solid black dots of the same size  (ie:  
<<...>> )  to get a halo effect around the black dots, when making ranged
thematic maps.  Purpose: to discern overlaying dots.  The effect was
beautiful, but alot of work.  The halo feature makes life easier, but the
halo is very thick and untidy looking, and small dots under large dots are
hidden.  Is there any way to change the thickness of the halo line to the
same thickness as the line making up the empty round mapinfo symbol?  This
won't solve large dots hiding small dots, but will make the picture
otherwise neater in appearance.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
