Irregular Grid

An irregular grid is used for area-based games.  It allows you to define a set of named regions at arbitrary locations.  When moving pieces on a board with an Irregular Grid, they will snap to the nearest region location.

Draw region names: If checked, the names of the regions will be drawn on the map.

Font size:  The font size used to draw the names.

Define Regions: Hit this button to bring up a window for defining the regions.  Right-click anywhere on the board to add a new region, or right-click on an existing region's name to change its name or remove it.
