[Geomoose-users] [Geomoose-developers] Popups

[Jay Kapalczynski]

Maybe a good topic for the next Users Group Meeting? Or the one after
that??

 

At least start the discussion...

 

In the future I would like to see these Popups applied to the select or
search query....Select a few parcels and then the popups are created for
that selection set....

 

I know this takes the software a bit futher than it was originally
designed for but that would be cool....

There are mechanisms for sending the popup information to the printing
service... they are just woefully inadequate.  With 2.0 and the use of
Openlayers we could use the more google-style popups which seem to be
more useful for some people.

I'm just working out how to best accommodate everyone's needs when we go
back to the drawing board on the popup functionality.

Jay, my personal experience with the popups is they have some usability
quirks with them.  There needs to be some time invested to get all of it
worked out, but they do work.  I haven't really used them in any of my
applications so I have not invested a lot of time trying to figure out a
good solution to enhance the end user usability.  But I do see the
benefits.

 

I personally like the approach where you might have a drop down menu
that only list what data layers the popups are available for and you
select one and that becomes your active popup layer.  That layer would
always remain on during all navigate functions and would only be turned
back off when a user selects a different layer or sets it to "none".  If
you made a popup stick it would disappear on any navigate.  You also
would not be able to print the popups.  Just thinking out loud hear.
Thoughts?

Just something I noticed...

 

If you click the Flag to turn on popups it turns green and the popups
show up

On mine I cannot turn that off unless I zoom in or out.

 

Instead of zooming in or out....say at the same zoom and uncheck the
layer and recheck the layer (turn off and on)

The flag turns back to yellow but still shows the popups when you go
over them...
