    Tie map right click coordinates to document property

    I have a use case where I’m using the “copy coordinates” found in the map right click menu. I then paste that to a doc prop in order to initialize a workflow in space. A very slick extension of that would be to configure a doc prop directly to the...

    Footnotes in Visualizations
