Filter Widget - Zooming

a_bakiera — Thu, 18 Sep 2025 20:57:48 GMT

Good afternoon,

I am trying to set up a filter widget in Experience Builder but am having trouble finding an option that exists in the Web App Builder version. Is it possible to enable/disable this option?

I can't find these settings anywhere in the widget. The default setting seems to have this option turned on because when I turn the filter off, the map zooms back to the home extent. I need to be able to change this so that when the filter is turned off, the extent stays in the same area and does not zoom anywhere.

Thanks!

Hi @a_bakiera

You should be able to go into the map widget settings > Actions > and tie the "zoom to" to the filter widget and remove or disable the action so the map doesn't respond to filter changes.

Or use the data actions to control what happens when the filters applied.

Alternatively you could set a custom initial extent in the map widget or use the bookmark widget to reset manually?

The bookmark widget ended up being a good choice for us in this particular scenario. Thank you!
