For pro for multiple backgrounds Updated 28 September 2026

Where

Map Backgrounds and Settings Viewer controls

Build a development overview with detailed maps or a mixture of image, GLB and Google backgrounds.

Steps

  1. Add each required background and give it a distinct name.
  2. Select each background and place the relevant existing records on it.
  3. Open Settings then Viewer controls.
  4. Choose Default viewer background and decide whether to show the background selector.
  5. Preview navigation and publish when ready.

Expected result

Visitors open on the chosen background and can change backgrounds when the selector is enabled.

Tips and limits

A record can have one placement per background. Its data remains shared across backgrounds; its positions are separate. No automatic conversion aligns image, model and geographic placements.

Effect on the published viewer

Publish changes to apply default-background, selector and placement changes.
