[Cartoweb-users] multiple scale dependent layers - one legendentry

[Oliver Christen]

Hi

to activate a layer (or layerGroup) at startup, you need to use the initialMapStates parameters.
see http://www.cartoweb.org/doc/cw3.4/xhtml/user.config.html#user.config.server.maps_config.initial
more specificaly:

mapInfo.initialMapStates.default.layers.*layer_id*.selected = true

this works the same for layer and layerGroup
write these in file cartoweb3/projects/*yourproject*/server_conf/*yourproject*/*yourproject*.ini

regards
Oliver

  Thanks for the tip. Yes the rivers LayerGroup was at the top level. I added a container layer as suggested

   

  layers.riversContainer.className = LayerGroup

  layers.riversContainer.children =  rivers 

   

  ;LayerGroup rivers 

  layers.rivers.className = LayerGroup

  layers.rivers.children =  rivers_and_streams500k, rivers_and_streams50k, rivers_and_streams50k_2, rivers_and_streams20k, rivers_and_streams1k

  layers.rivers.label = Rivers

  layers.rivers.icon = blank.png

  layers.rivers.aggregate = true

   

  If the aggregated LayerGroup rivers is the only layer in the Container LayerGroup the checkbox did not get rendered when

  layers.rivers.icon = blank.png

  is set. When I uncomment the icon it does get rendered J. I'm not sure whether that is intended behaviour.

  It does however always get rendered when I add more layers to the Container LayerGroup. 

   

  In my mapfile all the rivers layers are now set to

  STATUS ON

  The LayerGroup rivers shows up invisible /with a unchecked checkbox in the legend, whereas another layer "counties" in my mapfile shows up visible (see below).

  How can I set the LayerGroup to be visible at the initial loading ?
