Troubleshooting and next steps
The map capture is blank or incomplete.
Likely cause: Map tiles, logos, or fonts may not have finished loading before capture.
- Reopen the map card.
- Wait for all visible resources to load.
- Save the map again.
Leaving the editor triggers an unsaved-changes warning.
Likely cause: The current editor state differs from the last saved capture.
- Cancel navigation.
- Select Save Map and wait for completion before leaving.
