It would be nice to have a hotkey (such as ALT) which when held down shows the titles of each pin.
I have LOADS of pins on a map, and it is quite difficult to locate places without having to hover over each individual pin to see what is there. |

It would be nice. In other threads the recommendation has been made to have a pin panel that would list all of the pin labels for the active smart map and give you the ability to reveal the pin's names and associated content individually or in bulk.
It would be further helpful if clicking on a label in the panel would highlight the pin on the map. Showing ALL labels at once would be just a mess on maps with lots of pins. If I want to see what a specific pin it, I need only hover over it. If I want to look over all pins, a panel listing them all might be the better option. That said, I certainly wouldn't be against having the ability to show labels and even format the labels and pin images. I just think that for any smart map with a lot of pins, any on-map gui elements are going to be messy and another way to interact with lots of pins would be welcome.
