Metro Map Maker

One of the features that's requested most often is the ability to overlap lines.

There's a lot of new features I want to add to Metro Map Maker, but each new feature typically adds some new button or takes up additional space in the menu, which is starting to get a bit crowded.

In my last sneak preview on the Select tool, I showed how in Metro Map Maker v7.2 you'll be able to select a portion of the map and move just that portion, instead of moving the entire map at once.

Years ago, I was invited to a transit meetup held at the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) HQ to give a demo of Metro Map Maker.

First off, thanks again for everyone's patience – I know many of you signed up long ago for Metro Map Maker updates, and while I've been a bit quiet lately, I'm restarting development and am excited to deliver some new features for you soon.

I know many of you signed up earlier this year for Metro Map Maker updates, and while I haven't posted much since releasing version 7.1, I'm restarting development!

Hi everyone!

Thank you to everyone who took the Metro Map Maker v7.1 Feedback Survey!

A few days after the version 7.1 release, I sent around a quick 12-question survey asking Metro Map Maker visitors like you to share your feedback on how you're liking the new update.

Do you use keyboard shortcuts in Metro Map Maker?

Over the years, I've gotten lots of great feedback and suggestions from Metro Map Maker visitors like you.

In case you missed my earlier post or the v7.1 announcement video (embedded below), version 7.1 will be released on Wednesday, January 15th at 10:00 am New York time.

So far, I've written lots of sneak previews of new features coming soon in Metro Map Maker version 7.1, shared some of my favorite maps, and even shared some fun artifacts from a visit to the Library of Congress where I went searching for a map from 1880.
