Description of the Situation

One of the most important and technically sophisticated products developed by SmartPlayer is the widget designed for indoor navigation. Taking customer feedback into account, the SmartPlayer team decided to redesign and improve this widget. The widget was completely reworked and became simpler, more intuitive, faster, and more stable. This page describes how to properly configure and use the new version of the navigation widget.

Widget Configuration Sequence

The new version of the widget provides a step-by-step configuration process consisting of the following stages:

1. Open the general widget settings by clicking the gear icon. After completing the configuration, click the Apply Settings and Save buttons located at the bottom center of the widget.
2. Click the Categories button to open the room category creation page. Existing categories can also be edited on this page.
3. Add a floor using the corresponding icon and click the Select Map button located on the right. The map must be uploaded to a separate folder in the SmartPlayer personal account beforehand.
4. Click the Configure Click Areas button and highlight the required rooms on the map.
5. Add a terminal using the corresponding button on the right panel.
6. Add the remaining building objects: elevators, staircases, and rooms.
7. Configure the walls on the map and the room entry points.
8. Repeat steps 2–7 until the required number of floors has been added.
9. After configuring all floors, click the Apply Settings and Save buttons located at the bottom center of the widget.
10. Reopen the widget and click the Go to Navigation button in the lower-left corner to verify that it is working correctly. If all parameters have been configured properly, it will be possible to build a route to the required room.
11. To modify the widget settings, click the Return to Constructor button in the lower-left corner.
12. If the route to a specific location is displayed as a zigzag instead of a straight path, it can be smoothed. To do this, open the settings page using the Smoothing Points button.
13. Configure the route smoothing points and click the Apply Settings and Save buttons located at the bottom center of the widget.

Adding the Widget to the Personal Account

To add this widget to the personal account, the user must request it from a SmartPlayer technical support specialist. The widget will be provided as a ZIP archive.
