You would have to do some development yourself, and I'm predicting that it will be difficult.

If you are trying to implement an application that has more than basic features, I would recommend that you look at Fusion 2.0, as the WebLayout is customization hostile. Things that are easy to do in Fusion are difficult in WebLayouts, and often require changes to the underlying template files, which in turn, will
break on later updates.

Hi Kenneth

That's what we want, but we need it in the basic layout. We have done a lot of development porting an MG6.5 application, much of it is in asp.net using the basic layout. Is there anyway to get it working in the basic layout?

Regards

Gary

I have applications that does this, using OpenLayers.
Simply create two MapGuide layers, and set the bottom one to use JPG compression. Fusion 2.0 should be able to support something like this (not sure if 1.1 does?) The drawback is that you get two server calls, but it is still faster, even on fast lines.

Hi

We currently have an issue with MapGuide with the size of Image download when viewing Aerial images or detailed raster maps, we are finding the average PNG download is 2 -- 3 mb, this makes for very slow web client when working over the internet.

We know you can change the image format and have tested JPG and PNG8, but the image degradation is to great, I'm not sure how much the proposed ticket http://trac.osgeo.org/mapguide/ticket/465 will help with this.

We have experimented in using Base maps, but we really do not want fixed zoom scales.

So I wondered about a compromise, where the vector data is downloaded as PNG and image data is downloaded as compressed format, similar to using Base Maps but without the tilling, the PNG is then overlaid on the raster image. Does this makes sense?, would it be feasible for the a future development? The idea is you zoom and pan as normal for a non tiled map.

Any comments?

Gary
