Search & zoom
In the top right of the view below, you can search for data within the App using the search function, or zoom in / out using the + / – icons. As you zoom your App view with change depending on how the it’s been designed. In this example, if you zoom in over one of the Lab Icons you will soon see the floor plan and icons representing data reporting units (such as sensors or IoT Connected devices). You can grab the screen and pan left / right, or up / down. Note in the image below, bottom left is an icon for Edit App, and in the top left the logo or icon of the company sponsoring the app – these are only accessable by Editor or Developer users, they will not be live for you.
Navigation Layers
However, to streamline your navigation the navigation layers in the left side menu are live for all users. Click on each of the icons in the menu bar on the left. Additional navigational detail will appear as shown below. Roll over Lab 1 and click to jump to that location. In this case you are jumping from a wide-area view of North America (Fig. 1) to a detailed view of Lab 3 (Fig 2.)

Zoom back out until you see the view of North America, and use the + / – or your mouse to zoom in on Lab 2. Note the floorplan has changed. Your app can have many custom floorplans, floors, and icons representing myriad data reporting end points such as machine sensors, IoT devices, or even an Internet connected set of consumer electronics such as printers or PCs.
