Default location for map display (IconMap)

[Mila22]

Hi,

I'd like to ask your advice. I am using IconMap visual. If I open my project without points or polygons, the map is always displayed as in the image below. That is, approximately at the coordinates 51.0000000N, 0.0000000W. But I would like the map to be displayed in a different location. How to do it?

I don't want to show any points or polygons at the beginning, these are only displayed there afterwards according to the slicer settings.

Thanks for the advice.

M.

@ManEff and @Mila22 - I'm trying to follow your notes but it is not working for me.  When there is no data fed to the IconMap, it reverts to showing a section of England. 

Could you please elaborate on how you avoided this (if it still works now)?

Hi you could try to 'reset to default' under the Zoom options. It should remeber the location and zoom level it is left at upon report save

From James Dales:

It’s a bit of a workaround, but this should work:

With no polygons showing on the map, in the zoom settings change “Zoom map to objects” to “No”

Then drag the map to where you’d like it to show by default, then change the setting back to “Yes”.

At this point save your report, switch to another report page, then return to this, and it should honour the default.

Thank you so much @Mila22 for taking the time to explain - that is working for me.
