Azure map does not show the scale rulers

My understanding is that Azure Map is based on the TomTom map.

TomTom has the scale rulers at the bottom right corner of their map as shown below ('mi' & 'km')

However, Azure Map seems to be missing it

My users have been asking for this functionality and I believe that it is an oversight not to have it in Azure Map.

Might be a good idea to have it switchable (On/Off) in the map settings

Current Workaround: None — it's not available as a toggle or setting

This is a valid feature gap, and your idea to make the scale ruler switchable via map settings (e.g., On/Off toggle) would provide both:

Cleaner visual layout if turned off

Did I answer your question? Mark my post as a solution! Appreciate your Kudos !!

Thanks for clarifying.

How can I get this progressed as it is being asked againand again?

Thanks
