Using Bookmarks to Save the Current Map View

After you have panned and zoomed to get the exact view of the map you
want, you can add a bookmark to save the current view. In the future, when
you want to get to this view again, you simply choose the bookmark instead
of panning and zooming all over again. This can save you time and effort.
You create a bookmark by choosing Bookmarks
the name you type or select for your bookmark cannot contain any
commas (,), question marks (?), ampersands (&), or pound symbols (#).
For step-by-step instructions on using bookmarks, choose Help
click the Index tab, and look up "bookmarks."
The Map Explorer, which appears on the left side of the Autodesk MapGuide
Author window, contains the Design tab and the View tab. Both tabs display
the layers and layer groups in the map. As you design and create maps, you
work in the Design tab. You use the View tab to get an idea of what users will
see when they view your maps in Autodesk MapGuide Viewer. For informa-
tion about layers and layer groups, see Chapter 9, "Working with Map
Layers."
