Map View
The Map View is a visual tool to represent values geographically by customizing the content and the layout of the data.
Two Fields are mandatory in order to load a map. The Data Model definition must include Fields that have longitude and latitude information so they can be bound to the Google Map properties.
Maps do not work with Pivot fields. All the Fields selected must be in Groups or Columns in the Organizer section.
Each map has its own distinct properties that can be personalized.
When saving a map the current position and zoom level will be saved as the opening position.
- Choose Map to create a map using Google Maps.
