Thanks to your feedback, many new features have been added to improve the creation and exploration of your interactive atlases.

[Administrator] DataComposer added to your administration console

An area dedicated to DataComposer administration is also available in your Articque Platform Administration Backoffice.

[Expert] Atlas: import and export of favourites

• From the dashboard, it is now possible to export the bookmarks of an atlas and then reimport them into another atlas.
  A few things to know about its use:
  • Pre-existing bookmarks are overwritten during an import
  • If the owner of the favourite does not exist on the server, the favourite is ignored
  • If the map does not exist in the atlas, the favourite is also ignored

[Administrator] Ability to create a local account without sending an email from the platform

You can copy the confirmation links via your backoffice and then paste them into a message directly in your mailing tool.

[Expert] The interface of an Atlas adapts to the information represented

The display (or interface) of your atlas becomes lighter and adapts to the information you add to it:

• The Legend, Chart, Details, Layers icons will automatically hide if you have not added any in your Flowchart
• The Data icon will disappear if you do not activate the data table display option in your Atlas settings
• The bottom bar will be automatically hidden if all icons are hidden.

[Expert] Display an Atlas with a map only

The « map only » option allows you to display only the interactive map, without the layer panes, banners, click-through sheets etc. Ideal for integrating a simple location map (of agencies, points of interest, etc.) on your website or intranet for example!

To activate it, go to the settings of your Atlas and check « Map only ». The url of your Atlas will then be updated. The operation is the same for the iFrame (as a reminder, the iFrame is a piece of code to add to your web page to integrate your interactive map in two clicks).

If you enable this option, your original url and your complete Atlas will always remain active and searchable.

[Expert] Legends are now displayed by default in the layer list

The legends of the representations appear by default in the list of layers and no longer in the vertical block « legends ». This new feature will apply to new Representation modules that you add after this update.

The operation for Analyst users remains unchanged.

[Expert] Default location of Atlas items

Title, orientation, comments, scale are now integrated in the map by default, not in the legend area.

[Expert / Explorer] Easier return to the first level of an Atlas

The « Home » icon, which allows you to return to the first level of your Atlas, will now be permanently displayed in the horizontal bar at the top of your screen.

[Expert / Explorer] Locate more easily the geographical entity concerned by a record on click

Now, when you click on a geographical entity to view its record on click, the territory will be circled in red in order to better locate the concerned area on the map.

[Expert] Customise the display of the toolbar

In the settings page of your atlas, all the options that can be activated (legends, clickable records, etc.) are grouped together in the « Page layout » section.

This new feature is also accompanied by some changes:

• The sorting option on the data tables is now systematically activated
• The address search block is activated by default for all new Atlases (search area restricted to France)
• The display of each element of the toolbar (selection, help, zoom, printing…) is now customizable
