The 3D Map item is used to display a 3D map view. Use the 3D-Karte hinzufügen Add 3D Map button, and follow items creation instructions to add a new 3D Map item that you can later manipulate the same way as demonstrated in Interacting with layout items.

By default, a new 3D Map item is empty. You can set the properties of the 3D view and customize it in the Item Properties panel. In addition to the common properties, this feature has the following functionalities (Abb. 18.22):
