Pre-Planning: Visible Zoom Levels for Annotations and Units

Pre-Planning: Visible Zoom Levels for Annotations and Units

Purpose

  1. To explain how to interpret and set the visible zoom level for Annotations and Units applicable to the web view.  

NOTE: Setting the Visible Zoom Level enables the pre-planner to dictate at what zoom level certain items appear and disappear on the users screen in the web view. It is important to note that whatever zoom level is chosen, the set item will be visible at that zoom level and closer.  The visible zoom level for units and annotations in the mobile app is controlled in the Zoom Level Settings section in this KBA: Mobile app: App Settings
