When I refresh my map it goes back to the default background. I'd like to save the background so the map of Czechia shows in my language (English). If there is a better way to change/preserve this setting, please let me know. Thanks

Hi.

When you choose a background layer from the menu on the right side of the screen, while editing, and click save, that background will become the new default background of your map.

The icon background is the same than in the other menu but with permanent effect.

Regards.

That is what I was expecting and it didn't seem to be working. After trying your suggestion, I reloaded the page, set the background and then did a "save this center and zoom" from the right menu. That seemed to do it. Thanks for your help.
