in this specific case I think you should really (re)think your user interaction design. Think about: - Do you really want a user to be able to switch on all these layers at the same time? - Does the map still make sense if there are more than 3 layers selected (especially if they overlap)? - Is there any way to reduce the options by combining several areas into one layer?
We came up with a megamenu structure (basically a list selector) for mapping a few hundred statistical units in our project see: https://github.com/MinELenI/CBSviewer/blob/master/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/jsp/main_menu_theme_include.jsp 2014-09-18 7:51 GMT+02:00 Andreas Forø Tollefsen <andrea...@gmail.com>: > Hi, > > I am working on a thematic mapping platform showing data at local > administrative levels. > I have many layers, so I run into problems (see screenshot: > http://gisintersect.com/many_layers.png). > > Is there any way I can collapse groups of layers within the layer switcher? > I have a high number of layers, as you can see in the switcher.
