Note: You can use either Zoom For Windows or Zoom for Mac to create search engines for a Linux web server. The Server License however allows you to index from the Linux web server itself, and it can be used on any number of machines within an organisation.
Zoom is a software package that creates a search engine for your website, intranet, or DVD. It provides fast and powerful full-text searching by indexing your website in advance with an user friendly desktop application that allows you to configure and index your site, from the convenience of your Windows computer.
You can see Zoom in action via the search box at the top of this very page or on our search page. Our product tour and screenshots pages shows you how easy it is to setup and install search on your own website. You can also visit other Zoom users' websites from our example sites list.
The Zoom Search Engine Users Guide is an essential manual to installing, using, and configuring Zoom. It provides illustrated, and easy-to-read instructions for all of the features and options available in Zoom, to help you get your search engine up and running, and fine-tune its performance and options to best suit your site. It is the ultimate guide to getting the most out of your Zoom Search Engine.
If you have any problems, be sure to check out our online support site, which answers all sorts of Frequently Asked Questions, and Troubleshooting problems. You can also drop by our new Users Forum for help and advice.
After further experimentation, I may be seeing similar search zoom behavior. If possible, can you share the map with me and how you configured it? I've managed to come up with a repro case, but your specific example would be helpful if it is available. Here's my repro case, see if you can replicate what you see with this example:
In the above, a layer in the map has been configured as the search target. Enter the name of a pass (you can start with "s") to check things out. Then pan or zoom to another feature and click to display the pop-up in the sidebar, then click zoom. I've discovered there's a certain sequence that can result in what's been noted above. See if you concur.
Thank you for the example. My app has yet to go public, I will share if the search is included when it goes live. Yes, it appears to be glitchy, definitely better than yesterday. Thank you of you helped push something.
The issues that were discussed in this thread have been reproduced and a fix has already been applied on the development environment. I've not verified the fix yet, but will do so. The issue can happen when you use both the Zoom in the Sidebar panel, and also a custom search target in the Search tool.
AFAIK there haven't been any changes. Remember that there are two zoom settings that can be configured. One is for the Zoom link you see in the Sidebar panel when you click a feature, the other is an option zoom scale for when you've configure the Search tool. Maybe that is what you are noticing now.
I have a polling district map where a user may click on a polling station (point) and also return the Polling District (polygon) and in the results pane you would ideally allow the user to zoom to the correct extent for either feature.
As the app is currently I get the choice to zoom right into building level for the point layer by setting the zoom level across the board to building level OR zoom to full extent of the polling district polygon by turning off that zoom functionality. Either way one of the feature types is zooming to an inappropriate level.
Zoom Free Edition is designed for use on small personal websites. It's a nag-free application, that lets you use Zoom with no time restrictions. It has the ability to search through Word documents, PDF files and many more.
This edition of Zoom is designed for commercial developers. It allows you to index most large sites (up to 50,000 pages) - while maintaining the speed and ease of use of Zoom! You will be able to adjust the indexer to best suit your site, and it also provides support for document types such as .DOC, .PDF, and more. Commercial developers will also benefit from the additional technical support and flexibility of this edition.
For extremely large sites (up to approx. a million pages or more depending on hardware) or a cross-site search engine spanning many different websites, we would recommend the Enterprise Edition. This edition has no restriction on the size of your website (you are only limited by the amount of memory in your indexing computer), allowing you to specify the scope and demands of your website(s) to best suit your needs. You will also be able to fine tune the indexer and support document types such as Word DOC, Acrobat PDF, Shockwave Flash, and lots more.
Yes, the above editions of Zoom can be used for indexing multiple sites. You only need ONE license PER installation of the Indexer - so you can manage a multiple number of sites with one license if you handle all the indexing on one computer. More information here.
However, if you need to install the Indexer on multiple machines through out your organisation (e.g. you are a web hosting company or a corporation with anintricate Intranet demanding simultaneous indexing from multiple computers), then you should consider the Server License. This allows an unlimited number of installations of the indexer within any one organisation.
So in Experience Builder, the user has the ability to turn on the search option/tool on the map (not talking about the search widget). This search tool is linked to a geocoder(s). Currently when you search for an address it zooms to a scale shown below in the screenshot.
Now my question is, is there a way to modify the zoom level when using this search in Experience Builder?
Current output:
However, there seems to be no way for customization of this search (telling from the screenshot it is a locator search). I believe the only workaround is to customize it in dev edition to change the scale
It turns you can actually edit the Zoom level of the map search tool in Experience Builder which is actually tied to the extent set in Map Viewer. This can be done by changing the extent box size under item details page settings.
The Search widget allows you to configure a search tool to find features, records, or locations based on specific layers and locators, and define how to display search results. If you add multiple search sources to the widget, users can choose which ones to search. Performing the search using a layer source affects data across your app, so other widgets that use the same layer are filtered to show the corresponding search result. If you want search results to be selected, you can set an action. To have the widget select features without filtering the data, create a data view for the data source that you can use as the layer source. Performing a search using a locator source generates an output data source that other widgets can use.
To search, users type a word or phrase in the search box and press Enter, click the search button, or choose from a list of suggestions that appear based on matching records. (The suggestions list displays each matching value as an item, so if a record has two fields that match the search phrase, that record appears as two suggestions.) Users can use the Up and Down arrow keys to browse through the suggestions list. Clicking a suggestion replaces the search phrase with the content from the suggested item to apply the search using the new value, which returns corresponding data in a result panel. To streamline this, there is a setting you can turn on to automatically select the first search result. You can also configure the widget to open another page in your app to show the result in another widget.
You can set actions to create automatic interactions between the Search widget and other widgets. For example, you can make a map zoom to the selected result or show search results from a locator source on a map.
If you connect a Search widget and Map widget to the same feature layer, and turn on Show pop-up upon feature selection in the Map widget's settings, pop-ups appear when you select records from search results.
The widget uses full-text search to retrieve search suggestions for layer sources. Full-text search is an efficient search method that uses full-text field indexes, which split up records into small units, such as individual words. For example, imagine you have a layer of United States Post Office locations with a name field containing the names of every post office location. The index splits the name Highland Station Baltimore Post Office into five individually searchable words: Highland , Station , Baltimore , Post , and Office . If you enter a search phrase made up of any combination of those words (or just the first part of any of them) such as Baltimore Office , Highland Baltimore , or Stat Balt Office , you get that office in the search suggestions.
Full-text field indexes are automatically generated for hosted feature layers when you select them as search fields for the Search, List, or Table widget if you are the owner of the hosted feature layer or an organization administrator. You can also manually add indexes to attribute fields on the layer's item details page. If you have layers with no indexes and you do not have permission to edit the layers, the Search widget finds suggestions using START WITH abc% , meaning the widget looks for records that start with the search phrase. This is a less efficient search method.
To retrieve search results, the widget uses CONTAIN %abc% , meaning the search phrase can be anywhere in the record. For example, you can search for alt to get Baltimore, Salt Lake City, and Alton in search results.
Full-text search is new with the Experience Builder October 2023 release and is a breaking change. Before this release, the widget used CONTAIN %abc% to retrieve both suggestions and results. Unlike CONTAIN %abc% queries, full-text search cannot find search phrases located in the middle of words. In the example above, searching for altimor or ighlan will not return the expected post office in search suggestions. Learn more about searching for features in maps and apps.
