Note the following about map features:

  • Google™ Controls – The map employs standard Google controls; use these to move the focus in the map, zoom in and out, and view variations on the map, such as a satellite or hybrid view.
  • Icon – Each type of location is associated with a particular icon. This icon marks the location in the map.
  • Latitude and Longitude –  – When adding or editing a location, you can change its position on the map by dragging the icon on the map to a new place. Doing this automatically updates the Latitude and Longitude fields, but not the address fields. Remember to update the address as well by clicking the up arrow icon.
