1Overview

The workspace combines map controls, address search, location, basemap switching, a collapsible side menu, file tabs and a configurable tool bar. The Tools panel is the complete catalogue; favourites form the compact bar.

Use this guide when

Learning the interface, restoring a hidden control or arranging a repeatable review workspace.

2Before you begin

  • Load a file when you want file tabs and asset controls to be visible.
  • Allow browser location access only when Find My Location is required.

3Arrange the workspace

Learn the fixed navigation controls first, then tailor only the compact tool bar.

Step 1
01

Use map navigation

Pan, zoom, search and reframe without changing data.

  1. Drag to pan and use the wheel or +/- controls to zoom.
  2. Use address search or Find My Location when appropriate.
  3. Switch the basemap when aerial or street context is more useful.

5Navigation and saved preferences

Map movement is temporary; favourites, tool order and some display preferences persist in the browser.

Feature or choiceCurrent behaviour
Tools catalogueGroups Map Tools, Map Pro XML File Tools and Resources in one modal.Features remain discoverable even when they are not favourites.
FavouritesThe default bar includes Map, List View, Wiki, Design vs Constructed, Collaborate, Help, Audit and Support; the browser stores later changes.A repeated review can begin with the same tools.
Responsive layoutControls and the side menu reflow for narrow screens, while the map remains the primary surface.Tablet and mobile review remains possible without overlapping controls.

6Troubleshooting

Find My Location does nothing

Allow location permission for the site and confirm the browser/device provides a location. Use address search when location access is unavailable.

A favourite disappeared

Open Tools and add it again. Browser storage clearing or a private session can reset the saved favourite set.

Controls cover the map on a small screen

Collapse the side menu and compact tool bar, then use the Tools panel only when a command is needed.
