Cannot add text to map

Modified on 2025-06-10 20:54:59 +0200

When I drag a Custom HTML element to a map, so I can add some text, I can't add any HTML to the object. All I get is the BringToFront/SendToBack/Delete/DropConnections icons on the object.

Thank you - Walter

Hello,

After you added the HTML Custom Element to your map, you can mark the icon with a left-click to show the properties of the item in the upper right corner of the map designer. Click on the small arrow button below the HTML text to open the HTML Before and HTML After field.
