Hi,
Sorry, it has not been revisited ever since. As Arne mentioned, the underlying architecture is a bit of a problem. The easiest way to achieve this is probably to use Grafana as a map software and have the SNMP traps logged into a SQL database.
In our Tech Support Department, we're using Grafana as well (with the PRTG plugin) in order to allow for dynamic changes and a coherent, consistent layout.
Kind regards,
Stephan Linke, Tech Support Team

this is not yet possible, sorry.
It is likely that this will be available in the near future.

Dear dhoetzel
There is no map object for those messages yet. It is currently not in development either, I am sorry. Showing trap or syslog messages on the map has still the status of a feature request.

Dear bradwan
Currently we focus on other map improvements. I am sorry, I can give you no timeline or estimate for syslog messages in maps, as it currently does not have the priority to get on one on the shorter lists.

Dear Barry
This is still something we have not implemented, even though we deem it useful. The reason is a current architecture limitation. Instead of adding workarounds, we rather take the time to improve the underlying architecture.

Correct, yes. Please see the best answer of this thread (the one above yours) for a interim solution. This will likely not get implemented natively in PRTG for the time being. Sorry for the troubles :(
