Creating a kiosk link
Go to "Kiosks" and choose "+Add Kiosk".
Name the kiosk and choose the floor where the kiosk is. The system will choose the place automatically and fills in the latitude and longitude. Then choose desired zoom, pitch (the angle of how the map is displayed, recommendation 26) and bearing (which direction you want the map to be displayed in the kiosk).
Adding bounds: Put the map to the zoom level you want it to be in the kiosk. Create a POI to the left corner and get the coordinates by clicking the POI and going to RAW GEOJSON (these go to the first bounds). Then create another POI to the right corner and get the coordinates for that POI (these will be the second bounds).
Example: [[55.29035960943065,25.226712652593804],[55.29293009106567,25.22823702656723]]
Press submit and you have your kiosk created. The link of the kiosk is: https://maps.proximi.io/MyMap/?kiosk=nameofthekiosk

QR codes
If you want to use direct QR codes, you can follow this method:
From Proximi.io:
You can screenshot the QR codes from the Proximi.io map directly.
Tips for taking high quality screenshot on Chrome:
- Go to Developer Tools via clicking the settings (three dots) -> More Tools -> Developer Tools
Go to settings
Select "Devices" and add a new custom device. Use your screen's dimensions and add a suitable device pixel ratio. 4 or 8 give good results, depending on how large screenshots you need.
Close the settings and click on the "Toggle Device Toolbar" icon. Then select your new device from the dropdown menu.
Click on the three dots and select "Capture screenshot". The resulting screenshot will be saved on your computer.
From Chrome
Chrome has a built-in QR code generator. You can find it under the menu (three dots) -> "Cast, save and share" -> "Create QR code"
You can then download the resulting QR code
