[Qgis-user] QGIS-Webclient Layer-visibility

[Andreas Neumann]

 Hi Dieter,

 Just recently - the last couple days - Marco Hugentobler was working on 
 several improvements regarding the WMS server.

 You can now use a new command called "GetProjectSettings" which would 
 give a non-standard XML tree, similar to GetCapabilities, but containing 
 more project related settings, like visible layers, attribute data and 
 widget types, etc.

 This is now available in the server, but the webclient would have to be 
 changed to use this new command. Matthias Walker from Sourcepole is 
 working on it. Expect it to be available in the next couple days, along 
 with my new project switcher.

 In QGIS desktop it is now also possible to hide layers, layouts and 
 attributes from WMS and WFS - but they would still appear in the desktop 
 project. This is also a recent improvement, only available in QGIS 
 master.

 So please allow a couple of days to have this all available also in the 
 web client.

 Andreas
