[mapguide-users] Maestro API - RuntimeMapLayer from Session loses Filter?

Hi, I wonder if this is a misunderstanding or an issue? I have some app logic whereby when the user wants to filter a layer I swap out a Library layer for a Session layer. The session layer created from the original library, plus a filter. Stepping through the code (see attached image) I see

[mapguide-users] MaestroAPI - Runtime Map From Session Exception

Hi, I am using the Maestro API to create a map that I edit before showing by adding layers, changing filters etc - I know the map is created OK as it will load in a WebLayout and I can inspect it with the GETRESOURCECONTENT call. However, if I try and extend my application by opening the session
