V3 Doc Event Types

Event Types

Events can have several types, depending on the level of customization the user wants.

Custom

• The event is fully defined manually by the maker.

Template

• Can enforce parameters on the link between the map and the event.
• Sets its parameters so they can be assigned in a “Template Used” event.
• Any modification to a template is reflected in all linked “Template Used” events, similar to Figma components.
• A template can never be directly linked to a map—you have to use a “Template Used” event.
  • If a user selects a template when creating an event on a map, the “Template” event is duplicated to create a “Template Used” event, assigned to map N.
