Zooming to the result of “search” as in Google maps,
Zooming to the result of “search” as in Google maps,
For example, if we search for “Ramallah Hotels” in the Google maps:
The system zooms automatically to the results
The results are populated magnificently
It gives some information about each found result
/customer/servlet/servlet.FileDownload?file=00P6000000em1IUEAY
In return, in the Geocortex, the system neither zooms to the result of the search nor populates them in a magnificent way or gives information about them.
/customer/servlet/servlet.FileDownload?file=00P6000000elsA5EAI
Is this possible in the Geocortex?
Thank you
Best

Hi Jamal,
Refer to section "14.2 About Feature Descriptions" of Geocortex Essentials Admin Guide for information on how to populate information for search results.
/customer/servlet/servlet.FileDownload?file=00P6000000eluEVEAY
It is also possible to zoom to search results but currently it involves a series of manual steps.
An enhancement request to expose the "Zoom to All" option in the results list has been included in our wishlist for product improvements; however, it has not been prioritized or scheduled for future development as of yet. You have been added as a stakeholder on the report.
1-On the result list, click "Select All" (or select individual records by clicking the star icon)
2-Click "View Selected". A new panel shows your selection.
3-Click "Zoom to All"

Thank you Alejandro for the help. This is very useful.
GIS is all about getting information. The asset here is to see the maps. Then why the very end user is required to manually zoom to the results?
I think you need to include crucial enhancement to the Geocortex such that it automatically zooms to the results
Also:
The Gecortex doesn’t automatically zoom when using “add shape file”
The Gecortex doesn’t automatically zoom when using “add CSV file”0
