Anyone have experience with Geometry (Map) UI block?

#1

I have it working for 1 module with 2 records

but am unable to make it work for a different module with close to 1000 records

#2

I’d be happy to share any field settings or actual geolocation values if that helps

#3

also tried making prefilter events work. Tried a lot of things, could not figure out what is the desired input

#4

a prefilter like this worked
Type = ‘DD Government’

looks like it supports format same like record lists

but looks geometry fields are not supported in these filters. I wanted to do geometry != ‘’

also there seems to be some limit. It cannot process if records are more than x?

Geometry field is not filterable like you figured out.
I’ll check it out if there is a reason why it doesn’t work with a lot of records.
I have a feeling some error happens, so if you check the developer console for logs it should be easier to figure out why it doesn’t work. Press F12 to open it in most browsers and try to load the map.

Hi @ajaymatharoo

The only quirk I have noticed is that location markers may be “off-map.” If you zoom out, you see what appears to be a continuous world map, but let’s say you have a location in the UK. It will only show once, yet you will see the UK multiple times if you zoom out far enough. So you might need to shift left or right (when editing the block) so that when the map displays, it displays all of your locations.

The other item to check is that when you view the record with the geo field, you can click on the field, and it correctly pops up a map with your location flagged—if it doesn’t render, it may indicate an underlying issue with the data in your table.

Also check your permissions.

Best regards,
Mark
