I have been using the "Open in Explorer" option to update my web map. I am now using map viewer. The map (http://olympiahistory.org/wp/interactive-map-where-are-we/) shows historic locations. The "Combined Location" layer shows all historic locations and is symbolized as an orange dot. Each of the locations can have several other themes. I show the themes by creating a series of individuashapefiles (derived from the "Combined Location" layer) that I then add to my web map. The themes I symbolize with stick pins. That way, there might be a stick pin sticking out of the "Combined Location" dot.
This all worked fine in "Open in Explorer," but for some reason map viewer creates an offset of the two points, which is not the effect I want. Is there a way to change settings so that the stick pin and dot can be at the same location? Thanks for your help, I am hoping there is an easy fix.
This appears to be a bug. I've written it up so we can address it for our next update. The only workaround I can think of is to not use the pushpin symbol. Other symbols where the anchor point of the symbol is the center of the symbol seem to work correctly.

Thanks Mike. That would be a good bug to fix for my purposes, as a dot for a base layer and adding themes as push pins, gives the user more display options. I appreciate your review and am glad it is not something in my settings.

Mike: Has there been a next update? The bug still seems to be there. Brian
