06-Sep-2026 — keep the place search available when the Locate map is full screen ref #385
build 883 — commit 33c5c00
What's new
When the Locate map was maximised there was no way to change the place being shown. The search box lives in the page header, which the full-screen view covers, and with the Google Maps provider the map is an embedded frame that cannot be clicked to pick a point. The search box now appears in the full-screen bar as well, so a grid reference, postcode or place name can be typed and chosen without leaving full screen.
At a glance
- The Locate page's search box is available in the full-screen bar alongside the map provider and directions controls
- Choosing a place from full screen moves the map and updates the page address as it does in the normal view
