Zoom Out Further on Timeline Maps

What functionality is missing? What is unsatisfying with the current situation?

  Currently, on Timelines, you cannot zoom out very far on maps. I'm not sure if this is intentional or not, but I would like to see the whole map at once, as dragging around is very annoying and gives creators and viewers less of a full picture.    This is the map I am working with so you can see what I am talking about.  https://www.worldanvil.com/w/sol-zeer-gales/chronicle/the-system---a-timeline-chronicle  

How does this feature request address the current situation?

Being able to zoom out further seems like a simple fix, but perhaps I am missing something?  

What are other uses for this feature request?

I don't think maps work this way outside of Timelines, at least not with embeds, but I could be wrong.

Follow up



Please ignore, I found the MIN and MAX zoom settings, which seem to fix the issue. In my defense, they are a bit buried and not mentioned on the map tutorial, but still my fault! If anybody else had this issue, go to MAPS MANAGER > EDIT > SETTINGS, which pretty much is just the zoom thing plus CSS style.

The Team's Response

As you said in the follow-up, this is already an option. By the way, the Team thought your chronicle is really cool! :D
