Map control properties

Updated on April 5, 2022

After you add a Map control (the pyTrackingMap rule) to a cell, you can configure settings that control the appearance, function, and behavior of the control.

Map rendering section

The Map Rendering properties control the initial appearance of the Map control.
OptionDescription
Custom initial scaleSpecifies the initial map scale. Select the check box to set the integer value of the initial scale. The larger the number, the greater the magnification.
Custom initial lat / longSets the initial location when the control is first displayed and there is no marker or user track data to display. Select the check box to set the coordinates.
Update frequency Specifies how often the map is refreshed to show user locations. Select Custom to set the refresh interval in seconds.
VisibilitySets the conditions for whether the map is displayed based on user input.
 

Markers section

The Markers section controls how to display markers such as office locations.
OptionDescription
Enable markersSpecifies whether markers are displayed on a map.
Type The data source type used to display points on the map, either a property or a data page:
Property
The Map control displays a single location.
Note: Using this setting disables other functionalities of the Map control.
Data page
The Map control displays a list of locations, along with labels.
Address property The value of the property at run time. Enter either a hardcoded static value or use a property reference:
  • To manually enter the address, enter the coordinates within double quotation marks, for example:

    “42.366200, -71.076936”

  • To use a property reference, enter a value similar to the following:

    .OfficeLocation, SomePage.HomeAddress, EmployeeList.pxResults(1).Location

Drag marker position to update address value Determines whether the address is updated when the user drags the marker. If selected, the values bound to the Address property and Lat / long logging property fields are automatically updated to the new position.
