Atlas of Switzerland Web (AoS Web) - Version 0.21.0

This version mainly brings smaller improvements: the information window for a clicked object now points to the clicked spot on the map with an arrow.

Improved Features

  • The information window for a clicked object appears right next to the clicked spot, points to it with an arrow and no longer covers smaller symbols.
  • If the browser does not support direct sharing, only the button for copying the link is shown.

Fixed Bugs

  • Selecting themes using the circles on the home page works reliably again.
