Using a layout as an Information Window in a Map widget<br />

When a user taps a map marker in a Map widget on an iPhone, iPad, or<br />

Android device, a pop-up window is displayed. This Information Window<br />

provides additional details about the location, such as the location name <strong>and</strong><br />

related metric values, as shown below:<br />

Information Windows are automatically displayed for all markers, using a<br />

default layout <strong>and</strong> format. You can create <strong>and</strong> format a custom Information<br />

Window to display for a Map widget. To define a custom Information<br />

Window, you create a document layout, using either Desktop or Web. You<br />

then enable the layout to be displayed as an Information Window <strong>and</strong> specify<br />

the layout as the Information Window in the Map widget’s properties.<br />

Layouts enabled as an Information Window are not displayed with the other<br />

layouts in a document <strong>and</strong> are only displayed on mobile devices.<br />

If you define an Information Window in a separate document, you can reuse<br />

the Information Window layout by importing it into other documents. For<br />

instructions on importing layouts, see the <strong>MicroStrategy</strong> Report Services<br />

Document Creation <strong>Guide</strong>.<br />

Prerequisite<br />

This procedure assumes you have already added a Map widget to the<br />

document. For instructions, see To create <strong>and</strong> add a Map widget to a<br />

document for mobile devices, page 57.<br />
