Just to be curious, does the wmc spec have an option to store information about an overview? I thought this is merely a flat list of layers ... Although you could put together a context collection with one wmc for each mapobject. In that case you are right, wms setting changes shouldn't cross map object scopes. > > Other solutions could be discussed, like > > * reload the default settings from the database > * always show all layers of the overview WMS For me, a wmc makes sense if it stores the current layer settings, not some initial default, but presumably you have a special focus. > > but both solutions don't seem elegant to me, especially if you imagine > having 7 maps and 3 overviews in one applications. wow, i'd like to see that one ... ;-) Michael > > I believe when Mapbender had been designed it was not intended to ever do > sth. with the overview window after its instantiation, so then it made > perfect sense.
