<p dir="ltr">This sort of thing is why the GetMapbook.php stub is there. (And also to potentially let different users see different mapbooks.)</p><div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5">

<div dir="ltr">Hello James,<br><br>Yes, I tried using the map file name but what troubled me, was that I had all the layers under one check-box (either I had them all on, or all off); This is not the best thing as maybe I want to export a map with only a few of those layers.<br>
<br>It is also possible that I did not apply the good params in the catalog section to have them all separately. <br><br>My idea is to create a script that reads the map file and brings values in the .xml file. It should also read the STATUS param (ON/OFF) from the mapfile. <br>

<div dir="ltr">Hello all,<br><br>@Eli Adam: yes, that is the intended way. It works, I added each layer in the map-source with the "<span style="color:rgb(80,0,80);font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><layer name" param. Then, all those again in the the catalog section, with <layer src. I did that from the first attempt and the result is ok, but I do not wish to do this manual process for each map file.<br>
<br>The reason for my post was to learn if there is a more straightforward way (automatically).<br><br>Because I have many map files with a lot of layers and I always need all of them displayed to choose the best layout. I guess a little script can read the map file and build that list for me, using a few variables.<br>
<br>I am new to geomoose.. I've been using Chameleon for a long time and clearly its time is long due.<br><br>I really appreciate the support, the great documentation out there and surely I will get back to the mailing list with more questions as I go forward with the migration.<br>

</div>Does adding a map-source for each one work? I think that is the intended way.<br>
