Using map tips to display more information

An administrator can use the map tips feature to control what is shown in the pop-up window displayed when you click a record in the map.

About this task

Map tips are specified on the Map Tips tab when a map record is open in the Map Manager application. Each type of record has a map tip template in which the contents of the more information pop-up are specified. For example, the map tip template for the WOCHANGE record type specifies what is displayed in the pop-up for a change record.

You can create or modify the Map tip template. You can use the existing dialogue or create your own dialog added as a Map Menu Item from Map Manager.

Complete information about configuring map tips is provided in the "Configuring and managing maps" section of the information center.
