amMap App: Change height of map

[MHibbin]

Hi all,

I have to regularly switch between using the GoogleMaps app and amMap app (I think both are equally great for different situations), depending the general audience preference/use-case. One thing I noticed was that I couldn't see an immeadiate method for changing the height of the amMap maps.

I have tried modifying the panel, but as it uses "ServerSideInclude" this does not support the height param.

Can anyone assist with this?

Regards,

Matt

The solution...

After copying the relevant files to "my app", you need to "vi" (or whatever text editor you may use) the following file..

$SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/foo/appserver/static/ammap.html

Assuming, you have not changed the filename for the HTML, and where "foo" is your app's name.

Looking for the following line..

 var so = new SWFObject("/static/app/amMap/ammap/ammap.swf", "ammap", "100%", "400", "8", "#FFFFFF");

And modifying the "400" to the height you require. For example, this will change the panel height to 700pixels.

 var so = new SWFObject("/static/app/amMap/ammap/ammap.swf", "ammap", "100%", "700", "8", "#FFFFFF");

Hope this helps.
