Hi developers, Hope you all are well. Interactive maps application's SNAPSHOT 1.0.2 is now available on GitHub. :) Link: https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/application-interactive-maps
What has been done so far. - Markers and popups - Custom image support for markers - "xwiki/2.1" syntax support for popups - Simple forms for adding maps - Dedicated "Map Editor" for creating maps - Current location and location search controls - Generating routes between two points Maps can be created simply from Map.WebHome page or with the dedicated Map Editor for live preview. ToDo. - Implement WYSIWYG for "Popup Information" field (I have had some errors in doing it) - Compliance of code with XWiki standards (I should have done it from the start. Sorry about that.) Ecaterina and Stephane, I would like to ask you to evaluate how the application is so far. Your reviews will be highly appreciated. :) Best, Fawad On Mon, May 20, 2019 at 9:18 PM Vincent Massol <vinc...@massol.net> wrote: > Hi Fawad, > > > On 20 May 2019, at 18:12, Fawad Ali <m.fawaadal...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > Ecaterina, > > Thanks for that. > > > > Vincent, regarding the macro the Interactive Maps Application.
