However, I do think that being able to quickly view a single geometry from within the grid makes a lot of sense - and for users who want to easily visualise a single geometry, will be a great deal more convenient than the map. Note that I'm not talking about anything complex here - just a convenience panel that renders the geometry, and maybe has zoom and scrolling. The viewing tab would be where the real magic happens - handling the map overlay and the ability to display many geometries at once. -- Dave Page Blog: http://pgsnake.blogspot.com Twitter: @pgsnake EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company
