"tap" action on the map-card?

Hi there,

I have a map-card on my wall tablet, in a small card at the bottom right.
I would like to open it full screen (and possibly go back) when taping on it, but there is no tap option on the map-card.

Is there any way I could add a tap action on such a card (for example by putting a transparent card on it, or whatever … ?

Many thanks !

Did you ever figure this out? I am casting to a tablet and have it open a map card but no way to back out of it without losing the cast.

No … the only way I found is a small button below the map tile, independently of it, which opens a new dashboard with the map being full screen on it.

Trying same thing…
was thnking of a blank/transparent overlay that might offer that option?
Hope someone can come up with something

I had a moment of inspiration and got something working which ALMOST does what you’re after (ish).

I have a Sections view defined in a dashboard.
I defined a Vertical Stack:

  • Card 1 is a Bubble Card, defining a “Button (switch, slider…)” item with Tap Action set to Navigation > #mymap.
  • Card 2 is the mini-map I want on my dashboard. << This is NOT the #mymap target.

Then, following the instructions for Bubble Cards, I created a second Vertical Stack, this time with:

  • Card 1 as Bubble Card > Pop-up << This defines the #mymap Hash;
  • Card 2 as the normal larger map.

The result - BEFORE save - is below.

After save, the right hand pop-up object is invisible - and only gets shown if the user clicks the FindMy button top left. The resulting map is shown in a pop-up. As follows…

Now… my remaining challenge is to work out how to configure the map within the pop-up to be zoomed to a useful level AND/OR for the pop-up to displayed effectively full screen. Not worked those bits out yet… but it might give you a spark.

HUGE respect to @Cloos for his genius work on the Bubble Cards

UPDATE:
Discovered Bubble Card has native settings (deep in the UI) for setting and controlling the size of the pop-up!
