And you are absolutely right : in term of displaying map, continue to use viewparams in WMTS have no sense. But, at the same time the viewparams field were used to do so with the WMS protocol, Geoserver used it also to provide parameters the the SQLView used to choose what you want to select and display from your underlying TABLE or VIEW layer.
And this is this ability given by the viewparams field to customize select data selection that is now missing to me with WMTS protocol. -- Sent from: http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/GeoServer-User-f3786390.html _______________________________________________ Geoserver-users mailing list Please make sure you read the following two resources before posting to this list: - Earning your support instead of buying it, but Ian Turton: http://www.ianturton.com/talks/foss4g.html#/ - The GeoServer user list posting guidelines: http://geoserver.org/comm/userlist-guidelines.html If you want to request a feature or an improvement, also see this: https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/wiki/Successfully-requesting-and-integrating-new-features-and-improvements-in-GeoServer Geoserver-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/geoserver-users
