Tools and table view

Content tab

The content tab is VisioMapEditor’s content management system (CMS). It allows you to manage the content that will be displayed to the users of your final application. You can also choose to connect your own CMS to VisioMapEditor, or import your data with a .CSV file for example. Remember, a graphical element can become a POI when it receives an ID. POIs are also called Places.

Select tool

When you are in the content tab, you only have access to the tool. The select inspector allows you to see all the POIs that have already been named and the ones that are still to be named on the floor you are currently working on.

POIs attributes

When you select one of your POIs, you can see and edit its attributes.

Name The name seen in your final application. Also used for users' searches.

Print badge The badge number used in the legends of the printable version of your map. (See also: Export for Print, in the GoingFurther chapter.)

Icon Add an icon for your POI, either via a URL address or from the map's icon library.

Description A description for your POI. You can use HTML to insert links, images, and other relevant information.

Categories Create and assign categories to any POI.

Custom data Insert any type of information you may need for your POI.*

Table view

When you select a POI with the select tool, you can click on the "View table" button to access the table view of your content. In this view, you will be able to see the POIs of your entire map and edit the content of your venue structure, such as buildings and floors. You can also manage the locales and the translation of your content in multiple languages, as well as your categories.
