Letters or numbers on map pins

[Glenn1]

Hi

On this page https://help.appsheet.com/en/articles/961579-working-with-maps there are show two pictures of phones with a map, where the pins on the map have numbers.

I would like to do that, but dont know how to do it - have tried format rules, but there are no icons with numbers or letters, so how do you do that?

Thanks
Glenn

Those numbers you are seeing are groupings of pins. Once the number of pins have reduced by zooming in on the map, those groupings will separate to show the actual pins.

Unfortunately, the list of icons does not include numbers or letters. We do not have a way to “tag” a pin in that manner. There have been Feature requests submitted to add number and letter for this purpose. I strongly encourage you to find one and vote it up!

You can control the size of groupings in your map view under the View Options section. See the image below for an example. It might also be worth mentioning that you can control the pin count on the map by going to UX -> Options -> Map View -> Map Pin Limit

Use Minimum Cluster Size to control Groupings

Use Map Pin Limit to control number of pins shown

After four years, has this limit been exceeded?
Is it now possible to add numbered or tagged pins?

Unfortunately no.
