    Just use Regenerate then or set the height to a smaller value.

    Open Google maps and go to wherever you want to go to.
    Click the Hamburger (top left) and click Share or Embed Map.
    Click Embed a Map tab and click Copy HTML

    In Xara:
    Create a rectangle
    Utilities > Web Properties > Placeholder (tab) > HTML Code (body) and paste your code
    Replace the sizes Google has in their code with 100%
    Select the rectangle and Utilities > Web Sticky/Stretchy > Full Width (radio button)
    Adjust height of the rectangle to suit your needs

    Thank you Chris. I did this and it doesn't seem to work. The placeholder gets bigger but not fully stretched.
    I don't know what I am doing wrong. I am sure I did this in the past, but can't remember how

    Chris's example works straight out of the box and works as described.

    To find out what is wrong with your attempt, you need to offer it up in a design file.

    Without Scale-to-fit-Width it works perfectly; apply StfW and I am not sure that it still works (at least it didn't for me)?

    Gary, you are right but Chris was too having not specified anything about StFW.

    My Oslo Embed works in either configuration.

    I did too Chris. Thanks @acorn. I too wanted the full width map. I saw it on some of the temps but was unsure how to actually do it.
