You can set a custom map pin for different records, according to the field difference. Custom map pins can be configured in the view designer.
You have the flexibility to set custom map pins for various records based on field differences, which can significantly enhance the visualization of data on maps. Custom map pins are easily set up through the View Designer feature.
To define a custom map pin binding, click Add Map Pin. A new "Configure Map Pin" window opens.


You can configure 3 types of binding:
To begin configuring a custom map pin, navigate to the View Designer and select the "Add Map Pin" option. This action will open a new configuration window titled "Configure Map Pin," where you can define how your map pins will appear based on specific criteria.
Constant – one map pin is used for all the records (we choose an image from the image folder)
The next two options offer the possibility to create a custom map pin for different records, according to the field difference. This is only possible for the option set type fields.  


Value –  The map pin is defined by options name

Raw value – The map pin is defined by the options logical value


With Value or Raw value binding we have to select an option set field, according to which we differentiate the records. Next, choose a style where the format string is already defined. The style has to be ImageCellStyle or its child.
There are three main types of bindings available for custom map pins, allowing for a range of customization options:
 
*Constant Binding: This option utilizes a single map pin image for all the selected records. To apply this, choose an image from the image folder to represent all records uniformly on the map.
 
*Value Binding: This option allows the creation of custom map pins based on the name of options within an option set field.
 
*Raw Value Binding: Similar to Value Binding, this method defines the map pin based on the logical value of options within an option set field.
 
For both Value and Raw Value bindings, it's necessary to select an option set field as the basis for differentiating the records. After selecting the appropriate field, choose a style that specifies how the map pins should be formatted. The chosen style must be either ImageCellStyle or its child.
 
When you finish configuring and add a custom map pin to the row, it's displayed above it.
