Scale

Scale Bar

The scale bar is used to give a visual representation of the current extent relative to the maximum and minimum extent of the map. The red tick shows the current relative position of the extent. The and icons are used to zoom in and out at 50% of the current extent.

Scale Input Box

The scale input box serves two purposes. It shows the current map scale and it allows the user to input the desired scale to view. Type the desired value into the input box and click on the icon to submit.

Predefined Scales

The scale list is opened by clicking on the icon. Zoom levels are pre-defined by the MapOptix System Administrator. Each zoom level represents a defined map scale. The center of the map will remain constant when you zoom in and out using the predefined values.
