Forms that use Google Maps
Using the Form Section Designer you can also get your forms to display Google Maps. You would do this only if you want to show some address on a Google Map. The object that owns the form must have an attribute that stores the complete address. Note that you cannot display a Google map when you are creating an object. To add a Google Map to your form:
- Click on the drop down menu next to the
icon of the Form Designer toolbar icon (or alternatively drag and drop the
Google Map
element from the palette of available elements on the right of the form). - Select “Google Map Row” from the drop down menu.
- The dialog with Google Map properties will come up. Select the attribute that stores the complete address that can be shown on a Google Map or an attribute that stores a reference to a special MGeoLocation object that stores location latitude and longitude (See Mobile Applications document for details about MGeoLocation)
- Select other map properties and click OK.
