Mark sections and write on the wall

Besides holds, the Holds tab has two more things you can add to the wall: lines that split a climb into sections, and words written on the rock. Both show on every beta of the climb.

1. Mark a section

To split a long climb into parts, choose Add section divider… in the menu on the Holds tab. Drag the line into place, press Done, and give the section a name if you want one, like the crux or the rest.

A single dashed section line across the wall, named Easy section.

The line shows on the Beta maps tab too.

2. Write on the wall

Add text… in the same menu writes words directly on the wall, like start sitting or the way down. Type them and press Add. The text is then selected the way a hold is: drag a corner to resize or turn it, and the capsule to move it. The buttons edit the words , change the colour , duplicate it and remove it .

The words Start sitting on a wall photo, selected, with corner handles, a drag capsule and four round buttons.

The colour choice open under the selected words, with nine colours and a custom colour.

3. See them, or hide them

Sections and words show on the Beta maps tab, but they can only be changed from the Holds tab. To hide them, untick Section dividers or Text in Layers. The Layers guide has the rest.
