[Geomoose-users] GM 2 help and meta tag

[Dan Little]

Hi Dieter,

The help and metadata tools were changed in GM2 because we actually have a much more flexible system for implementing layer controls.

To implement the metadata you should be able to do the following:

<catalog>
...
<layer title="Title" src="service/name" ... metadata="true">
<metadata>url to metadata information</metadata>
</layer>
...
</catalog>

If the "?" icon does not appear next to the layer make sure to check the "catalog.show_controls" setting, it must be set to "true."

<configuration>
...
<param name="catalog.show_controls" value="true"/>
...
</configuration>

This was my definition in GM1:

      
>   <group title="Climate" expand="false">
      
>     <map title="temperature" default="true" 
> reference="true">
            
> <file>./test.map</file>
          
> <meta>../meta/test.meta</meta> 
        
>   <help>../download/climate.zip</help> 
      
>     </map>

          <map 
> ....
..
..

        
> </group>



In the docu I found that there should be a tag

<metadata>URL</metadata>

But this isn't

I tried also to set this 

        
>         <param 
> name="layer_controls.metadata.on">true</param>

without any 
> effect. 

Any idea? And the "help" disapeared?

Thanks,

Dieter
