Creating and Modifying Zoom Goto Location Categories Help Index Zoom Goto location categories Before you can zoom to specific map locations using the Zoom Goto function, you need to set up Zoom Goto location categories for your map. Each Zoom Goto location category includes the information required by Autodesk MapGuide® Server to look up locations in an SQL database. When Autodesk MapGuide Server finds one or more matching locations, it returns the associated coordinates to Autodesk MapGuide Author or Autodesk MapGuide Viewer, which zooms to the specified location. For example, if you have a database containing the coordinates for each country in the world, you could create a category called "World Country." This would allow users to zoom directly to a country simply by typing the name of the country in the location box. Adding location categories to your map can save users a lot of time. You can create, modify, and delete zoom location categories using the Zoom Goto tab in the Map Window Properties dialog box. Note that you cannot delete the US Street Address category.  For step-by-step instructions, choose Help Contents, click the Index tab, and look up "Zoom Goto location categories." 146 | Chapter 8 Creating and Publishing a Map
