TOPIC: A couple requests...

If there is already a way to do this that I am missing, oh please let me know and forgive me for having missed it. I've been over the interface though and I can't seem to find settings for this.

Specifically, what I'd love to see added is a zoom level setting and map type setting for the detailed view of a marker. The example that comes to mind is a civic center type area I have as a marker and I would love the detailed page to show a rather tight view of the few blocks around it and in satellite view instead of map view.

The second request/suggestion that actually dovetails with the first one here is the option to simply set a picture/graphic as what appears in detailed view for the main window instead of a map. Again, to cite a specific example would be with my civic center area. I would like to be able to simply have it load a .jpg, which in this case, I'd have as a static satellite view with numbers on buildings. Then below I could make my own text list explaining what each number is for public offices. I'd just need the option to enter the .jpg file to replace the detail map view entirely.

Thanks for taking time to consider these requests. Sorry in advance if I've looked right at a way to do this and not realized it.

Hey Steven,
Sorry for the delay in my reply

You could edit media/com_hotspots/js/Hotspots.Hotspot.js line 36it sets the zoom level to the start zoom level that you have defined in your configuration. Setting anything between 1 and 20 should do the trick.

About your second suggestion - search the forum. There was a thread where I describe the necessary code change to show first the picture and the map in the second tab.

Kind regards,
Daniel
