New
- Version history you can act on: preview a past version before you restore it, and roll back to any version the map has already published from the versions panel. The confirmation says what will change on the public map and that your draft is untouched. Republishing an unchanged map reuses its existing version. Very old versions keep their place in the list, but their content has been removed to save space, so they can no longer be restored.
- Public maps show what you publish: edits to a draft no longer reach the public map until you publish it. The builder notices every change, including markers, shapes and labels, and the publish confirmation says what will ship. A public map that cannot load shows a clear message.
- Geo maps on the new viewer: standard and overlay maps now display on the new map viewer in preview and on public pages, and open in the new geo builder, which shows one floor at a time on multi-level maps. Image maps stay on the current viewer.
Improved
- Basemaps: the list is now five vector styles and satellite imagery, and the 'API key required' watermark has gone.
- Publish button: it stays in one place in the builder as Publish, Update Published or Published, rather than vanishing after an edit.
- On the geo viewer, clustering, hover, pan limits and minimum zoom now behave as they should, shapes with info windows open on click, and the viewer loads faster.
Fixed
- Published geo maps show the basemap the author chose, and the default info window setting is saved.
- Public maps no longer get stuck on 'Bringing your map to life' when their area is sized after the page loads.
