You can customize the Map View element by changing properties in the Properties pane:
• The General tab lets you define the element's optional ID, set the map location, the type of map, the zoom level
and add location markers. For details, see "Changing General Properties" on page 197.
• The Appearance tab lets you set the Map View element's border and opacity, and add a reflection and shadow to
the element. For details, see "Changing Appearance Properties" on page 198.
