Hello Proxi Community!

We're thrilled to announce a series of powerful updates to Proxi, designed to make your mapping experience more dynamic, efficient, and fun. Whether you're a seasoned user or just getting started, these new features are sure to elevate your Proxi experience. Here's a rundown of what's new:

New Features

Forms 2.0: Enhanced Data Collection

Our Forms feature just got a major upgrade! With Forms 2.0, you can now create even more detailed and customized forms to gather all the information you need. This update includes:

  • Conditional Logic: Show or hide questions based on previous answers, ensuring your form remains relevant and concise.
  • Custom Fields: Tailor your questions with a variety of form fields, including text, multiple choice, photo uploads, and more!

Image Overlays: Visual Storytelling

Image overlays add an extra dimension to your maps, allowing you to infuse creativity and functionality into your creations. Here are some ideas on how to make your maps come alive with overlays:

  • Sponsor Logos: Showcase your sponsors by seamlessly integrating their logos onto your map, enhancing visibility and recognition.
  • Layered Data: Dive deeper into your map's narrative by overlaying topographic images, heat map data, or county outlines, providing valuable context and insights.
  • Backdrop Layers: Set the stage for events or exhibitions by overlaying booth outlines or floorplans, offering attendees a clear visual guide.
  • Stickers and Illustrations: Inject personality and charm into your map with a variety of stickers and illustrations, ranging from fantastical map elements to corporate infographics, adding a touch of whimsy or professionalism as needed.
  • Notes and Instructions: Communicate important information directly on your map by overlaying images with text, whether it's map legends or special instructions for map engagement.

Translation Tool

Proxi now offers an automatic translation feature for your maps, making it easier than ever to reach a global audience. With just a simple toggle of the language switcher in the header, you can enable multi-language support for end-users, allowing your maps to be accessible in multiple languages.

Updates and Refinements

New Design to Point Cards and Drawers

  • Sleek New Add-A-Point Drawer: Effortlessly add points with our revamped drawer.
  • Refined Point Cards: Enjoy a fresh new look and feel for point cards.
  • Customized Point Card Order: Sort your point cards by category, number, event start time, alphabetical order, or distance.
  • Endless Scroll for Point Cards: Seamlessly view all the points on your map with smart, seamless scrolling.

Spreadsheet Optimizations

  • Accelerated Load Times: Enjoy faster load times for your data.
  • Superior Error Management: Better handling of tags and categories to minimize errors.
  • Duplicate Detection: Enhanced detection and management of duplicate entries.

Search Improvements

Tags and custom field values are now searchable on the map details page, making it easier to find what you're looking for. For example, if a custom form field is "favorite color" and someone answers "blue," when you search for points and type "blue," that point will appear.
