Join Nigel French for an in-depth discussion in this video Adding an interactive map, part of Designing a Digital Magazine.
…Let's begin in Reflector in the finished version.…I'm now going to add this interactive map.…When I click on the map, we can see that we can move it around.…We can scale it.…We can do anything that we expect to do with an interactive map.…I'll move now to our work in progress, feature3.…I want to put the map here where I have this placeholder frame.…I'm going to switch to Safari.…And I'm going to use Bing Maps for this rather than Google…Maps, because, currently, there seems to be a problem working with Google Maps.…
I've put in my address.…And this is the map it's given me.…I'll then click on Share.…And I want to specify that my map be a certain size.…It wants to be, 484 pixels, which is the width of that frame.…And then slightly less than that in height, because…it's actually going to add in these links as well.…Which is not factored into this dimension.…So I'm going to say 460 pixels in height and then generate the code for that.…
I'll then copy that code.…Switch back to InDesign and paste it.…There will be a pause.…
