Alteryx Canvas Bookmark

We use several Files that are fairly large (canvas size). To traverse around to try and find where we last left off or to examine a specific X, Y at a specific zoom....one would need to either remember the tool number to search for or search for a keyword that returns several choices.

 

My suggested solution would be to create a bookmark(s). This would allow you to save a named bookmark that would save exactly where (X,Y) you are in the canvas and the Zoom level (Z). This way you could easily switch back and forth with in a canvas just back clicking the bookmark.

 

If anyone has ever used a CAD program that allowed the creation of 'Views' within the same diagram...this would be similar.

 

Thank you

Sorry I haven't been on here in a while, but I would like to thank the dev team for taking this on! Once we finally get the go-ahead to upgrade....I look forward to using this new feature!

 

Thank you very much!
