# Navigate the map
Pan, zoom and rotate a Felt map, snap back to north, go to coordinates, and set the view a map opens to.
## Moving around the map
* To pan the map, click and drag.
* To zoom in and out, use your mouse’s scroll wheel. You can also use the **+** and **–** buttons on your keyboard, or the **+** and **–** buttons in the bottom right corner of the map.
* To quickly zoom to something on your map, double-click it from the Legend or List. You can also use the **F** key to zoom to a selected layer or annotation.
* Right-clicking on the map provides you with controls for that specific place in the world. Add a comment, copy the coordinates, [measure](/tools/measure.md) a distance or area, or open the location in another tool.
* Press **Cmd .** (Mac) / **Ctrl .** (Windows) to hide Felt’s interface and see your map in full screen.
* To rotate the map, right-click and drag, or use two fingers on a trackpad. You can also press **Shift** and the **←** / **→** arrow keys to rotate in 15° steps. A compass  appears in the bottom right corner once you’ve rotated – click it or press **Shift ↑** to snap back to north. Your current rotation is saved in the map’s share link.
## Pan & zoom
* To pan, select the map and move your mouse at the same time.
* To pan while an object is in editing mode, press space bar and then pan the map.
* To zoom, use the `+`/`-` buttons at the bottom right corner of the screen, or use your track pad or mouse scroll wheel. You can also double click the map to zoom in.
* To locate yourself use the in the bottom right corner of the screen.
## Setting your map view
You can set a default view that workspace members land on when opening the map. This ensures the map opens to a certain location and zoom level by default:
**Felt Menu** (top-left) → **View** → **Set current view as default**
When copying a map link through the **Share** menu using the **Copy link** button (bottom-right corner), the link automatically includes some URL parameters that point to your current view. Take the following URL:
The **loc** parameter specifies the center coordinates of the center of the view and the **z** parameter at the end of the URL indicates the level of zoom.
Using these parameters, you can share specific views of your map with people, or even embed different views of a same map on your website.
