Copy map as URL

You can also copy the current view of the map as a URL. This is useful if you want to create a link from a Web page to this view of the map.

  1. Use the Zoom and Pan tools in the toolbox or the right-click menu to display just the portion of the map you want to see.
  2. Right-click on the map, and then choose Copy » As URL from the right-click menu. The URL describing the map view is now copied to the clipboard.
  3. Switch to the application in which you want to paste the URL.
  4. Choose Edit » Paste.

The URL that identifies the view of the map you copied now appears in the application.
