Can the overview map be printed along with the main map when using the Print widget?

RSchaffner — Wed, 15 Jan 2025 17:19:08 GMT

I am glad that an overview map option has been added to the map widget, but there are few options for configuring its appearance, such as changing the base map or zoom level. It also appears that when you add a Print widget to a map, only the main map is printed, and not the inset/overview map. Is there a way to change this?

Map as seen on-screen (note inset map barely visible at bottom right.)

Here is a screenshot of the resulting printed map-note the lack of overview map:

You would probably need to build a custom print service that has print templates with overview maps in the print templates. Do you have the ability to create your own services?

Hi @RSchaffner

I think it should work with a custom printing service.

Hope this can point you in the right direction:
