[Launched] Set a custom default view for maps 🗺️

Hello everyone!

Have you ever opened a map only to find it auto-zoomed in or out in a way that doesn’t reflect the view you intended to show? We’ve just shipped an update to help with that.

:star2: What’s new

You can now set a custom default view for map visualizations. This allows a map to open in a specific zoom level and center point, instead of always auto-zooming to fit the data.

:gear: How it works

To save a default view:

  • Go to edit mode, then pan and zoom to the view you want everyone to see first
  • Click on the Pin button on the map to save that view

After exploring the map, viewers can quickly return to the saved default view by clicking the Reset button.

Give it a try and let us know what you think! We’d love to hear how this improves your mapping experience. :speech_balloon:
