[OpenLayers-Users] Visibility of features in vector layer

[Stefan Lischke]

Hi Dave,

That was also exactly my problem. Maybe there is another solution (i also
would like to hear it)
But i used Layer.setVisibility(boolean) to show/hide features. So you have
to put the features on different layers.

Hopefully someone will come up with a better solution
