🔧 How to Configure Default Views on Your Site

Setting up default views allows you to tailor what components and tickets are shown by default when users open a site in the map view.

Updated over a week ago



📍 Why Use Default Views?

Setting up default views allows you to tailor what components and tickets are shown by default when users open a site in the map view. This is especially helpful as your project progresses—from piles to panels, trackers, trenching, and more.

Different stages of a construction site may require different default visualizations:

  • During pile installation → show pile components

  • During panel installation → show panel components

  • During tracker work → show table components

  • During quality control → show only relevant tickets


🛠 Steps to Set a Default View for Components

  1. Go to the Components tab.

  2. Select the component type (e.g. Piles, Panels, Tables).

  3. Click on the component to configure.

  4. Toggle “Show on map by default”.

  5. (Optional) Choose the colouring logic for components:

    • Use a field such as State (e.g. drone detection status) to determine colouring.

    • You can also select from custom fields or pilot fields.

  6. Click Save.

  7. The next time you access the map, this component will automatically appear.


🧾 Setting a Default View for Tickets

  1. Go to the Tickets section.

  2. Find the ticket type (e.g. Trenching QC, Punch List, Site Issue Reports).

  3. Toggle “Show on map by default” only for relevant forms.

    • Example: Turn on for trenching QC, off for Punch List (if it's still being filled in).

  4. Revisit the Map View to see your default tickets displayed.


🔄 Can I Still See Other Layers?

Yes! Default view settings:

  • Only affect initial visibility

  • Can always be changed in the layer bar on the right

  • Allow you to toggle components/tickets on or off at any time


✅ Summary

To configure default views:

  • Use “Show on map by default” toggles in Components and Tickets.

  • Adjust visibility based on project phase.

  • Tailor your workflow without losing access to all data.
