Hiding Control Overlays

Suggest Edits

The previous example showed how to display a fullscreen map which includes certain control overlays like the search bar, level selector and zoom/pan controls. You can specify one or more of those to be hidden as shown in this example.

Update the load config to hide selected controls

Simply add a "uiHide" entry to your load config as shown in the code below to hide all controls except the level selector:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">

	<head>
		<script type="module">

			import LMInit from 'https://maps.locuslabs.com/sdk/LocusMapsSDK.js'

			const config = {
				venueId: 'lax',
				accountId: 'A11F4Y6SZRXH4X',
				headless: false,
				uiHide: { sidebar:true, controls:true, levelSelector:false, mobileSearchBar:true, mobileHidePOIView:true}
			}

			window.LMInit = LMInit
			LMInit.setLogging(true)
			LMInit.newMap('.mymap', config)
				.then(m => { window.map = m; })
				.catch(e => console.error('Error initializing map: ', e))

		</script>
		<style>
			html, body, .mymap {
				height: 100%; margin: 0; padding: 0;
			}
		</style>
	</head>

	<body>
		<div class="mymap" style="height: 100%;"></div>
	</body>

</html>

It is critical that the SDK is initialized with the correct div class or identifier so that the SDK can load the map in the appropriate place.
