Creating links between main frame to specific section

NoamEzioni1

I am using the Journal template that shows webmap with lines featrue on it - on the "main" frame. I am looking for a way to link between a each line feature in the webmap, to a "section" in the side-frame. Is there a way? I tried to use Ancors in - its not working... any ideas?

thanks,

Noam

Hi Noam,

Sorry to hear. We will try to do that on line and polygon geometry and document it.

Yes you can do that using the parameter section in the URL, for example http://noaa.maps.arcgis.com/apps/MapJournal/?appid=ceebefd9685143daa5bf30d5a7e0c7fa&section=2

Hi Gregory,

Thank you for your detailed reply.

Hi,

Yes this is doable, see that example: http://www.arcgis.com/apps/MapJournal/?appid=d3fff6acdf5e4b08a82d99f07f20ddfb

Map Journal has an API that allows developer to navigate between sections. See that documentation for the procedure Esri/map-journal-storytelling-template-js · GitHub

This message has been edited to reflect a new procedure for creating those links in April 2015. The previous procedure does not work anymore.

Thanks. Elliott, But I am looking or the other way around.

let me start from the end: I want to make the right "section" in the table of content to show up when I click on a feature (a line, point or polygon) on the map. for example: lets say that the journal is all about sight in the city. Each site represented with a point on the map and a section ib the TOC. when I click a site - the TOC will show the related section.

Hope I got myself clear this time...

Thank you

Noam

Click the edit icon (the pencil).

Click on the Side Panel tab.

Select the text you want to create a link to the main map.

Click on Locate an address or place (in the Main Map Actions area) --- looks like a push pin.

A map will then pop up and you can click on the place (say a road) that you want the text to be related to.
