Structure view in Map Editor

In Structure view, the contents of a map appear in a dynamic grid. You can use the Structure view to quickly make simple changes to the map.

In Structure view, you can take actions on any object in the map, whether or not the map is checked out.

When you check out a map with the Edit toggle enabled, you can perform a number of edits to the map, such as:

  • Add an object or element, new or existing

  • Move or reorganize objects and elements within in a map

  • Rename a map

In the Actions column, you can take actions such as:

  • Edit an object in another tab

  • Move an object to another status

  • Fork an object

  • Modify a taxonomy term applied to an object

  • Click to access More options menu items

When you check out the map with the View toggle enabled, you can perform actions on objects within the map from those identified in the Actions column.

  • Add or remove a new or existing object

  • Move an object above or below its location

  • Promote or demote an object

  • Cut and paste an object or a parent and child group from one area of the map to another
