I have an inline list which is a collection of inline lists. So when i go to the second level of the inline list, i am displaying that as Map instead of just a list of items. If i recall there was an option for the end-user to choose what he wants to see LIST or MAP view and we can set a default view to begin with. I noticed that on my phone ( or otherwise also ) am not getting that toggle option to switch between the list and map view. What am i missing? ![Screen Shot 2021-07-01 at 11.04.17 AM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/3/3/3335188c006552786ff7adcabf1c0e7b4b6db2fc.jpeg) -Shiv ---

It has always been that way for map inline lists, I don’t know what’s the reason they do not allow this. ---

So where or how is it that we get to see or use the option for toggling between the two? -Shiv ---

In a list view you can get that option to switch between the two, in a details view in an inline list that’s a no. ---

Hello @Shiv ~~I would like to know your setup to be able to display this map in Tab detail style ?? It looks like you are using a Detail Tab Style, but, for me this is currently not possible, the only Map component for detail tabs is much more basic (see ugly ;-)) ~~ EDIT Ah yes, sorry, I understood, Super Awesome, thank you 🙂 ---

That looks line an inline list in a map view. What you are referring to is a map component I think. ---

@ThinhDinh @Manu.n Thanks for your responses. Looks like the difference is between using it natively as an InlineList-Map vs using it as a Map-Component inside Details. ![Screen Shot 2021-07-01 at 1.25.14 PM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/5/9/59b71b3f848c591af1249b1c5cafc671677d93b1.png) ![Screen Shot 2021-07-01 at 1.27.06 PM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/0/f/0ff2b9b70d145b5fa299959daddd8ce437d90081.jpeg) Wondering why this difference?

No idea about the technical challenge. I also wonder why. ---

In fact, this strange behavior is exactly what I’m looking for. it’s a map without the list (ugly) And yes @Shiv , it is not very logical, but fall, it should not be said too strongly, otherwise it risks correcting this anomaly 😉 ---

One of the biggest challenge i see in my usecase is that - i want the the list to be sharable ( send a link to screen using a button - you might notice it in the screen grab above ) which is possible only when i add a button in the details view. The default inline list wont allow me to add anything more than just the list. If i have a workaround to implement the button then am fine with using the latter option which will give me the toggle view also. -Shiv ---

Yeah this is a known issue. I think thats something we have to live with when it comes to MapBox. -Shiv ---

Click on this post. It has a response from Jason and a solution. > [@Map feature for Inline Lists](https://community.glideapps.com/t/map-feature-for-inline-lists/1703/13): > > Last I was aware, when viewing an inline list as a map list in a detail view, you cannot have the option to switch between map and list due to limitations. I have a workarounds here in the food/activities tab. Make sure to make both selections before anything shows up. ---

> [@Jeff\_Hager](#): > > It has a response from Jason Apparently, it looks like its a response to Kristian that the documentation will be updated to reflect the fact that Details+Inlinelist\_Component+Map will not have the option to toggle ☹ But when i dig deep into the documentation it still not called out explicitly anywhere. > [@Jeff\_Hager](#): > > and a solution I presume you are referring to the one by you in your app? I liked the idea of using the choice component to show what we want. But again that would introduce lot more buttons and would take a lot of space in the app real-estate ☹ But I liked the idea there. Wish it was possible natively like in Inlinelist+Map would have made the data look consistent. For now, the workaround I have in my mind is to have another button at the bottom which links to Inlinelist+Map - but that would make the UX terrible ( so am still in contemplating mode ) -Shiv ---

Theoretically you can have floating buttons to set a value to a user-specific column. Then show/hide a map inline list and a list inline list based on that value.
