## Overview

Yellowfin's mapping suite has several interactive features to allow the user to view different sets and levels of data.

 

## Zoom & Navigation


### Hover Navigation

The hover navigation, enabled in the Settings menu, allows the user to zoom in & out and navigate around the map.

### Bottom Navigation

The bottom navigation, enabled in the Settings menu, allows the user to zoom in & out, click on an area of the chart to re-centre, and reset to the original zoom level.

### Mouse Scroll Zoom

All maps now have zooming enabled with the scroll of a mouse, just hover over the map and scroll up or down to zoom in or out.

## Layer Selection

If the map you're viewing has additional layers that are enabled as Selectable, then you will have a layer selection panel on the right hand side of the map.

Clicking on the arrow will expand the panel and allow you to select layers to display or hide.

## Tooltips

Active tooltips on maps allow the user to hover over an area, highlighting it and displaying its value.
