This custom tool allows the end user to configure an alternative switching option between map views for the WebOffice core client. Instead of the standard switching option in the form of a dropdown menu, a slider is configured, which can, offer a more suitbale user interface for example when switching between different floors of buildings which are configured as map views in the WebOffice core project.
