Tips

In Google Slides and Google Docs, if you selected a shape or an image, the map image will replace the selected object. And the size (width x height) of the selected object will be used for the map image to keep the same aspect ratio. So the width and height you entered in the sidebar will be ignored.
In Google Sheets, the image will be inserted to the location of the active cell.
