I would like to change the zoom level on a map used on a form. I tried the options listed at the following:
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/programmatically-change-map-settings/

However it seems the event is never fired.

Thanks. Are there *any* options that are available with the Map on a CRED form? Can I make any change aside from setting a default value? I see that a lot can be done with views.

Hi Shomar,

Unfortunately, no all the map settings are set when you insert it into a view or through the use of JS when displaying the map.

Thanks,
Shane

Ok thanks. I decided to convert the Address field to a regular text field and then add a Google Map with some event handlers to capture drag and clicks. I then store the lat/lng values in the text field. Works pretty good since I don't need the address lookup feature.
