How-to 2
Add and edit a label with the on-screen keyboard
- 1
Open Text and type
Use Open panel, then Text. Tap Label text and enter the wording. Keep the message short enough to read when the final map is viewed at a smaller scale.
- 2
Choose the style
Select a preset and use Customize style if needed. Scroll to the relevant controls instead of assuming the options visible above the keyboard are the whole form.
- 3
Review and add
Dismiss the keyboard when you need more room to inspect the preview and footer. Tap Add Text. Locate the new label on the map and move it into position.
- 4
Edit the existing label
Tap the overlay to reveal its controls, choose Edit style, and revise the wording or appearance. Use Save Changes and inspect the placed result again.
How-to 3
Add nearby businesses on mobile
- 1
Set the area and open Search
Frame the relevant area, open the editor panel, and choose Search. Type a business name or tap a category. Wait for the result list before selecting items.
- 2
Choose one or several
Tap a business name to open its artwork choices. Use the small checkbox beside a row when selecting a batch. These actions have different outcomes, so review the selected count before proceeding.
- 3
Choose the representation
For one business, review artwork, Upload Custom Logo, or Use Text Only. For a batch, use Place N as Text. After placement, return to the canvas and inspect each added location.
- 4
Avoid accidental repetition
If an item is outside the current view or covered by a panel, inspect the map before tapping the add action again. Repeated placement can create overlapping copies.
How-to 4
Work with overlays and drawing controls
- 1
Reveal the overlay actions
Tap an overlay to reveal its toolbar. Use the available edit, line, duplicate, or delete controls for that type. Tapping elsewhere can dismiss the toolbar when you need to inspect the surrounding map.
- 2
Make space for careful positioning
Close the sidebar drawer before moving or resizing an object. If labels are tightly packed, zoom in to identify the target and zoom back out to check the composition.
- 3
Cancel a drawing mode visibly
When a shape tool is active, use Cancel (Esc) in the drawing banner if you need to stop. This gives touch users a visible cancellation action even without a hardware Escape key.
- 4
Use a larger workspace for precision
For a detailed polygon, a dense tenant roster, or many overlapping controls, a larger screen and pointer can make the supported drawing workflow easier to control. Save the map before switching devices and reopen the saved project there.
How-to 5
Save and download from the drawer
- 1
Save before leaving
Open the panel and tap Save. Wait for the save confirmation. A mobile browser can suspend a tab when you switch apps, so confirm the save before moving to another task.
- 2
Open Download with Pro
Use Download in the panel. Choose Image or Template, review the controls, and inspect the preview within the available screen space. Scroll to see all options.
- 3
Choose appropriate output
Use the layout and final dimensions required for the destination. Start with a manageable image size if the device struggles. In 3D, allow time for the server render and check the completed file.
- 4
Find the file
After downloading, use the browser's downloads interface or the device's file location. Open the file to confirm it is the latest export and includes the intended framing and branding.
How-to 6
Use the mobile 3D selection controls
In 3D, tap an overlay to open the selection panel. Use Select more overlays when you want to build a multiple selection without a keyboard modifier. Read the selected count before Group selected, Duplicate, Move to center, or Delete.
The compact name-tag controls read Show names or Hide names. Individual business selections can expose their own name-tag and logo actions. If the scene is slow or unavailable, return to the saved 2D map and check the device's browser and graphics support.
Check your result
You can reach the needed controls, verify the edited map, and confirm it saved before switching apps or devices.
