Updated 7 Nov 2026

Open Signage

The Booking status - Map widget displays a live floor plan where every room and desk is coloured according to its current booking status in Booking. On touchscreens, users can also search for resources, book available spaces, and scan a QR code to take walking directions on their phones.

Available slots: Main stage

Map and Classic map (legacy) floor plans use their own drawings and resource assignments. The screenshots below show Classic map, and the widget renders the map family configured for each floor. Floor plans are maintained in Map, and bookable resources are managed in Booking.

Settings in the side panel are organised into five groups: Map view, Resource status, Labels, Interaction, and Location.

Map view

At the top of Map view, the View mode card selects between 3D (default) and 2D top-down. Existing screens continue using 3D unless you switch them to 2D. For more details, see Show the floor plan flat, in 2D.

Below View mode, the camera framing controls depend on the selected mode:

3D mode: Provides preset camera angles (Top down, Tilted, Turn left, Turn right, and Recenter). Recenter moves the camera target back to the floor center while keeping your current zoom, rotation, and tilt. You can also drag and zoom the map directly in the live preview to frame each floor individually.
2D top-down mode: Turn left and Turn right rotate the flat plan in 90-degree steps, and Recenter centers the floor plan in the frame while keeping your current zoom and rotation.
Reset to default: Clears custom framing, zoom, and rotation and restores the widget to its default full-floor 3D view.

View mode at the top of Map view: 3D or 2D top-down.

Setting	Description	When to change it
Lock map view	Locks the camera angle and zoom level to the framing you set in the editor.	Enable when users on a touchscreen should not pan, zoom, or rotate the map away from your chosen view.
Level strip	Displays the floor selector bar along the edge of the map.	Turn off when the screen only displays a single floor.
Floor name pill	Displays the current floor’s name on the map.	Enable when Level strip is turned off so viewers still know which floor is shown.

Resource status

Setting	Description	When to change it
Show remaining time	Displays how much time remains on an active booking.	Turn off when availability colours alone are sufficient.
Show organizer	Displays the current booking’s organizer, with separate toggles for Organizer photo and Organizer name.	Enable on internal staff boards; keep off on public lobby screens.
Availability legend	Displays a colour key explaining each availability state.	Enable on lobby screens for visitors unfamiliar with the map colours.
Short-available color	Highlights free resources that have another booking starting within the Short-available threshold (minutes) using a distinct colour.	Enable when people look for walk-in rooms and need to see which rooms are only free briefly.
In-preparation color	Highlights resources currently in a preparation or cleaning buffer using a distinct colour.	Enable when rooms have a cleanup or setup gap between bookings.
Waiting-check-in color	Highlights bookings awaiting check-in using a distinct colour. See How check-in and no-show work.	Enable when check-in is required and viewers need to distinguish reserved rooms from occupied rooms.

Labels

Setting	Description	When to change it
Room labels	Controls when room names appear on the map: Always show, Show when hover, or Hidden.	Choose Show when hover or Hidden on dense floor plans where showing all names at once overlaps.
Desk labels	Controls when desk names appear: Always show, Show when hover, or Hidden.	Hide individual desk labels on dense floor plans that are easier to read by zone.
Equipment labels	Controls when equipment labels appear: Always show, Show when hover, or Hidden.	Adjust based on map density.
Parking labels	Controls when parking space labels appear: Always show, Show when hover, or Hidden.	Adjust based on map density.
Other resource labels	Controls when other resource labels appear: Always show, Show when hover, or Hidden.	Adjust based on map density.
Label by access ID	Displays each resource’s access ID instead of its name (resources without an access ID still show their name).	Enable when people locate desks or parking spaces by short number codes.

Interaction

Setting	Description	When to change it
Touch interaction	Enables touch controls on the map. The search, filter, and time slider toggles below only apply when this is on.	Turn off for non-touch displays or screens mounted behind glass.
Resource search	Displays a search box to find resources by name.	Enable on wayfinding kiosks where visitors or staff search for specific rooms.
Show filter bar	Displays an on-screen filter bar to filter by resource type.	Enable on mixed floor plans where users want to isolate rooms or desks.
Time slider	Displays a time slider so users can preview availability later in the day.	Enable when people use the board to plan upcoming bookings.
Scan-to-go QR on route	Displays a QR code on drawn wayfinding routes so users can open the directions on their phones.	Keep enabled on both touch and non-touch screens so people can take directions with them.
Allow booking from map	Allows users to tap an available resource on the map and book it directly from the pop-up card.	Enable when the screen serves as an interactive booking kiosk.
Require check-in	Requires check-in for bookings created directly from the map.	Enable when your organisation’s booking policy requires check-in.

Location

Setting	Description	When to change it
Floors on the map	Selects which floors load into the widget: Follow device location, All resources, By building, or By floor.	Choose Follow device location or By building so the screen shows its own building rather than all sites.
Type	Filters which resource types are plotted on the map. Leave blank for Any resource type.	Select a single type if a floor plan contains both rooms and desks but the screen should only highlight rooms.
Auto-cycle floors	Automatically rotates through the selected floors at the specified Cycle interval (seconds).	Enable on non-touch displays that cover multiple floors.

Scope and limitations

Floor plan drawings and resource placement: Floor plans are drawn and edited in Map, and resources are created in Booking. This widget only displays the saved floor plan and live availability.
Widget background: Because the floor plan renders its own canvas surface, this widget ignores the board-wide widget background setting. All other board-wide settings in Widgets and the places they go still apply.
