<br>
Yes - I like the idea of a separate tab for import/export of layer<br>
properties.<br>
<br>
I guess the "Save style" would then be renamed to "Save Property"?<br>
<br>
The only thing I am missing in this mockup is the ability to<br>
check/uncheck all checkboxes. It is kind of boring having to uncheck a<br>
lot of checkboxes if just want the styling or labeling.<br>
<br>
Cool - looking forward to these improvements!<br>
