Can I control the map by foxglove-extension?

[WuMianzhi]

I want to customize a Foxglove extension that can modify the map's behavior, such as changing the zoom level or other interactions. However, it seems there aren't any related docs or APIs available. Is there a way to achieve this?

[jtbandes]

Extensions can't modify existing panels, only convert messages or install custom panels. Could you say more about what you are trying to accomplish?

I got it, thank you very much!!!, Is there any way to know that allframes has been loaded?

[defunctzombie]

No - unfortunately there is not yet a way to know it has been loaded.

one more question, if i use context.watch("allFrames") which means i dont need to context.watch("currentFrame") ?

[defunctzombie]

If you are only going to use allFrames and don't have any logic that deals with currentFrame then yea you don't need currentFrame. However - allFrames is not available for "live" connections (like websocket) so if you want your panel to work with live data and replay data then you still do need currentFrame.

Ok, thank you again! Maybe when I finish my current project, I could write a tutorial similar to building-a-custom-react-panel-with-foxglove-studio-extensions. If you'd like, you could add it to that series so it can help other developers.
