- Quick Plots are widgets within MapGuide…that enable users to print to PDF.…The Quick Plot has advanced settings…that customize the Scale, the Title,…and the Legend of the printed page.…In the Nanaimo application definition,…let's scroll down to the Widgets.…You'll notice on the Toolbar,…the Quick Plot is automatically shown.…Let's try this out.…Click the Go button.…We will click the Quick Plot.…We have a Title, a Sub title.…We have five Paper sizes to choose from,…A4, 3, 5, Letter, and Legal.…
I'll pick Letter and Landscape.…We can Show the Legend, the North Arrow,…Coordinates, a Scale Bar, Disclaimer.…I'll click Generate.…PDF is generated.…The Roads in the Legend,…the x and y are shown on the map.…The North Arrow, as well as a Legal Disclaimer,…and the Scale Bar at the bottom.…We'll close that.…If I uncheck all those things…and Generate again, you'll see only the map is shown.…
Now, I may want to always have the Legal Disclaimer on,…so I may want to turn that on,…and we can actually take away the user's ability…from unchecking that.…
