| FIELD | DESCRIPTION |
| Delay | Delay in real-time updating of search results after a character is added or removed from the search field. This delay is measured in milliseconds. For instance a value of 100 means search results are displayed as soon as you type at least 3 characters. If the value is set higher (e.g. 7500ms) Quick Search waits 7.5 seconds before showing the results (or until your press Enter) A longer delay means there is less communication between WebMap and the database. Setting a longer delay can be useful when working with large databases. Minimum delay is 100 (0.1 seconds) and the maximum is 30000 (30 seconds) |
| Min Characters | Minimum number of characters user should type before a search is initiated. |
| Initial fetch | Maximum number of results initially displayed for each search type |
| Extra Results | Number of additonal results loaded when 'Get More' is selected. |
| X Offset | X offset for the pin. The black dot on a pin is set exactly at the centre of the pin. i.e. it has an offset of x=0 and y=0. Customise these values to change the position of the black dot. |
| Y Offset | Y offset for the pin |
