Note: When you save a map, the points deposited on that map are automatically
associated to it. In other words, it is associated to the page created with the map's
depth that contains the point. You can verify this association by selecting the point
on the tree and then showing the tabs named Event Treatment and Plant Browser
in Composer. If a point is deposited in more than one map, then it will be
associated with all of them, in sequence. You can also modify the map sequence
order (automatic or manual pages). For details on modifying sequence order see
Associating manual pages to points – MM8000 [➙ 33].
MM8000 only
Note: . The automatic association of maps to the points can be
globally disabled in:

Testing a map

Toggling the button shown in the following figure allows you to test certain
elements of a graphical map as if it were active in MM8000 / MT8001. Use this
button to test the behavior of special commands (such as graphic commands) to
see how they will appear in MM8000 / MT8001 runtime.
Toggle the test button again when you wish to go back into edit mode.
Test a map by toggling the test button
Creating default map pages
You can define a general default page that will be used for all data points that have
no associated graphic. In addition, you can also define a customized default page
for separated sections of the project structure (sub-trees). Sub-tree default pages
have higher priority and replace the general default page for all runtime association
uses.
