I have applications that does this, using OpenLayers.<br>
Simply create two MapGuide layers, and set the bottom one to use JPG
compression.<br>
Fusion 2.0 should be able to support something like this (not sure if
1.1 does?)<br>
The drawback is that you get two server calls, but it is still faster,
even on fast lines.<br>

is downloaded
as PNG and image data is downloaded as compressed format, similar to
using Base
Maps but without the tilling, the PNG is then overlaid on the raster
image.
Does this makes sense?, would it be feasible for the a future
development? The
idea is you zoom and pan as normal for a non tiled map.<o:p></o:p></span></font></span></p>
