Introducing the new map drawings based on flexible layers

by | News

We’re thrilled to announce the release of the new map drawings feature. This major new feature is available to all Mapme users, and we’re confident you’ll love it!

You can now add drawings of lines and shapes to your map, and control when those drawings are hidden or visible.

Map drawings based on flexible layers

Until the release of our new drawing feature, when you wanted to add a drawing to a map, you’d do so through the location details. However, this didn’t allow you to control when drawings would appear on the map.

With the new drawing feature based on layers, you can add drawings to the map home and categories, as well as individual locations! Therefore, you can easily control when drawings will appear on the map. For example, you can opt to:

  • Show drawings only when a specific location or a category is selected
  • Show drawings only in the map overview
  • Always show drawings
You now have control over the display and interactivity of your drawing.

Display Options

Control when your drawings layers appear. For example, you can choose to:

  • Show drawings only when a specific location or a category is selected
  • Show drawings only in the map overview
  • Always show drawings

Drawing order

If you add multiple drawing layers, you can control the order in which drawings will appear. For example, if you add drawings that overlap, you can choose which drawings appear on top of the others.

Drawing opacity

You can easily control the opacity of each drawing. For example, if you want to highlight an area on the map, you can set a low opacity so map details are still visible beneath the drawing.
