Points and data

For editors Updated 28 September 2026

Where

Points toolbar then Columns tag filter and Name heading

Simplify a wide table without removing the underlying data.

Steps

  1. Use the tag filter to narrow the Points table. To find an unplaced record by name, use Find a record in Map then Add points.
  2. Choose Columns to show or hide standard or custom columns.
  3. Click the Name heading to cycle between Custom order, A–Z and Z–A.
  4. In Custom order with filters cleared, drag a row handle to reorder. The handle also supports up and down arrow keys. Placed on shows the backgrounds containing each record.
  5. Clear the tag filter when you want to return to all active rows.

Expected result

The editing table is easier to scan. Hidden columns retain their values.

Tips and limits

Table visibility and public popup visibility are separate. Hiding a column does not make its contents private or remove it from a published popup. Tags can be stored on records; there is no dedicated viewer tag dropdown.

Effect on the published viewer

Table visibility changes do not by themselves hide public data.
