Atlas of Switzerland Web – Version 0.20.0

New Features

• Help with tours and keyboard shortcuts: The new help section brings together all guided tours and lists the keyboard shortcuts for each operating system. The overview of keyboard shortcuts can also be downloaded as an image.
• “First steps in the atlas” tour: Using an example, a new tour walks through theme selection, map, legend, tools and search.
• Zoom buttons: The map can now also be zoomed in and out with plus and minus buttons.
• More up-to-date aerial imagery: Within Switzerland, the aerial imagery fades into swisstopo’s most recent imagery (SWISSIMAGE) when zooming in.

Improved Features

• Pages and maps load much faster, and the map opens directly in the right extent and view.
• The map can now be shared even when no theme is selected.
• Shared links show a preview image of the page or theme in messengers and on social media (Open Graph).
• When a measurement is converted into a drawing, the drawing tool opens with the new object already selected.
• When printing, clear messages explain when too many requests have been made or a drawing is too large.
• Tabs, lists, links and dialogs are easier to use with the keyboard and show more clearly which element is selected.

Fixed Bugs

• Pie charts on the map are drawn more accurately, and bar charts stand on their baseline.
• The colours of colour ramps in the legend are now more consistent.
• A clicked or searched object is now only highlighted on its own layer.
• Going back and forward between theme pages in the browser now works correctly.
• Ctrl+P or Cmd+P for printing now also works on the theme overview.

Instructions for Use

The help section can be opened via the “Help” link in the footer, via the “Help / Instructions” button in the panel of a theme, or with the “?” key or “Option+H” (“Alt+H”). It contains the tabs “Guided tours” and “Keyboard shortcuts”.
