description: "Look up every tool on a map's Extensions page: its label, what it does, whether it starts enabled, and if it supports Open on load."
---

Every tool listed on a map's Extensions page, with its UI label, description, supported actions, whether it starts enabled on a new map, and whether it supports `Open on load`. The page is reached from the admin sidebar → `Extensions`.

For the page layout, `Add` / `Settings` / `Remove` semantics, and the `Open on load` model, see [How the Extensions page works in MangoMap](/docs/map-extensions/concepts-map-extensions).

## Card-level controls

Each tool row on the Extensions page has these controls. Which are present depends on whether the tool is on and whether it supports settings or open-on-load.

<img src="/_assets/map-extensions/extensions-page-reference--card-controls.png" alt="Extensions page rows with each control: Add on Print, Measure, and Mouse highlight; Settings and Remove on Copyright and Scale bar; Remove only on Geolocation; the Open on load chip on Information sidebar; and the filled Opens on load chip on Share and bookmark" width="1600" height="960" />

| Control | When it shows | What it does |
| ------- | ------------- | ------------ |
| `Add` | Tool is off | Turns the tool on. For tools with settings, opens the settings page first. For pure toggles, enables immediately. |
| `Settings` | Tool is on and supports configuration | Opens the tool's settings page. |
| `Remove` | Tool is on | Turns the tool off. Most configurable tools delete their saved configuration when removed, so re-adding starts from defaults; `Information sidebar` keeps its content. |
| `Open on load` (dashed outline) | Tool is on and supports being default-open | Click to make this tool the panel that opens when viewers first open the map. |
| `Opens on load` (filled, primary) | Tool is currently set as default-open | Click to clear; viewers will land on no panel open. |

Only one tool can be the default-open tool at a time. Setting `Open on load` on a second tool moves the chip and clears the first.

## Settings page navigation

Each tool with a `Settings` button routes to its own settings page within the Extensions area.

To configure another tool, return to the card grid and open it. The `Extensions` item stays visible in the admin sidebar.

## Save behaviour by tool

The settings pages don't share one save model. The per-tool how-to in this set states which applies; the table below is a quick scan.
| Tool | Save model |
| ---- | ---------- |
| `Legend` | `Save changes` button at the bottom |
| `Search` | Implicit per-field save (each toggle / dropdown / list saves on change, with a save indicator) |
| `Advanced Search` | `Save changes` button |
| `Query` | Tool-level: `Save Changes` button. Per-query: `Save Changes` button with validation (`Measurement unit is required`) |
| `Proximity Analysis` | Tool-level: `Save Configuration` button. Per-config: `Save Changes` button with validation (`Measurement unit is required`) |
| `Information sidebar` | `Save changes` button; both `Title` and `Content` are required to save |
| `Print` | `Save changes` button |
| `Measure` | `Save changes` button; unsaved-changes guard with `Save & leave` / `Cancel` / `Leave without saving` |
| `Copyright` | `Save changes` button |
| `Mouse highlight` | `Save changes` button on a one-field settings page (layer to highlight on hover); no unsaved-changes guard |
| `Scale bar` | `Add` turns the tool on in Metric; `Save changes` button to change units |

## What this reference does NOT cover

- **Per-tool settings detail** — the fields, defaults, and choices inside each settings page. Those live in the per-tool how-to.
