If you didn’t noticed ;-)
Wednesday, March 21st, 2007If you didn’t noticed there is no help file for the Editor. We are writing it…
But the fact is that some functions may be hidden for users because they are not obvious even if we work hard on the user interface.
So, if you didn’t noticed:
- You can edit the map by right clicking the node in the treeview corresponding to your map
- When you edit a map from the Map Dialog you can change the center of your map by dragging the map in the preview
- From the toolbar you can click the “Quick Add” button to add markers just by clicking on the map. You can later edit the marker properties by clicking the marker icon (and then the “Edit” link in the Info Window) or by double clicking in the row corresponding to the marker in list (below the map)
- You can drag a marker on the map if you want to change is location
- If you right click on the map, a contextual menu appears. You can go to the center of your map or change it. You can also change the default zoom of your map
A lot of people ask us how to see the map they have published.
The next build we clarify the process, but in the meantime here is a quick answer:
First you need to publish your map by clicking the Publish Button in the toolbar. You can preview your map from the Publish Dialog by clicking the Preview Button. The URL address of the Preview page is the address that you can use to share or put on your website.
The address will look like this: http://generator.click2map.com/maps/your_user_name/your_map_name.
Of course the future help file will explain in detail all the features of the Editor.
