[Geomoose-users] [GeoMOOSE] Tree-view and mapbook organization

[Fischer, Brian]

In version 1.5 we are going to add the functionality to be able to group
layers into the same image and still be able to toggle the layers on and
off.  The purpose of this is to take advantage of MapServer's label
collision functionality.

This is exactly the reason St. Paul has separate "Visible Layers" and
"Catalog" tabs. The catalog is organized and the Visible layers is used
to manipulate the layers including Z-order. Separate and linked
label-map layers is not currently supported... Keep in mind that this
would cause GeoMOOSE to hit mapserver twice (for both the label and map
requests) and that may have a performance impact.

I think another ?useful? feature might be independence of the tree-view
hierarchy from the mapbook hierarchy. In other words, categorizing
layers in the tree-view in a way that makes sense to the user, may not
match the order in which the layers should be displayed.
