Hello,<br>I'm new to OpenLayers and have some experience with ka-map : I want to migrate my application to this solution.<br><br>Some questions: <br>- Is it "easily" possible to code our own widget like a new layerSwitcher ? for example a widget with a slider : dragging the slider decrease opacity of a layer and increase opacity of another.
<br>I made it for kaMap :<br>default application is here : <a href="http://www.ominiverdi.org/ka-map/ka-map/htdocs/">http://www.ominiverdi.org/ka-map/ka-map/htdocs/</a><br>and customized : <a href="http://kamap.swissgeo.ch/gastrofuhrer/index.php?lang=en">
http://kamap.swissgeo.ch/gastrofuhrer/index.php?lang=en</a> (zoom to maximum, then you can drag the slider for transparency of layers)<br><br>- I've tried the animated zooming effect (<a href="http://trac.openlayers.org/ticket/442">
http://trac.openlayers.org/ticket/442</a>) : I applied the patch but didn't succeed to make it work, the code doesn't seem to be up to date with the actual code of OL. Is there a version up to date for this nice functionality ?
<br><br>I'll be pleased to contribute if it's possible! I've already coded something which can be useful for ka-map users migrating to OL, a layer class which can use the cached tiles of ka-map.<br>Tell me if something like that have intersest for the community, and how I can transmit that.
<br>Thanks,<br><br>Sebastien<br>
