Planning and Managing Your Maps

Overview

When it comes to building custom views, maps are one of the most useful and versatile tools you have at your disposal. This video (3:42) provides best practices of what to consider before you start building your maps.

Map only static objects. If objects move, you need to adjust their location on maps, and it is difficult to keep maps up-to-date.
Build maps to match the column width of your Orion Web Console views. Rescaling maps in views results in distorting of icons and texts.
