Re: [udig-devel] Clarifications on Legend View Spec

You can also go over the eclipse user interface guidelines; indeed now is a good time before cutting much code :-)

Or perhaps just the name? There is a new project action that may work as an example.
I have other ideas of course
You could take the one or more selected layers and move them into the folder. In that case you could make the default name based on the layer resource keywords; especially if they all have a keyword on common.
Considered making a folder if you drop a layer onto another layer; combined with the idea of a default name created from keywords it would be pretty handy.
In any case those are just my ideas one if the nice things about open source is the person doing the work gets the final say. We do a code review but only against the eclipse house rules etc functionality is up to you.
The wizard idea sounds good. What attributes of the folder needs to be inputted in the wizard? From Paulâs ERD, name and the flag to show or not?
Thanks,
Naz Chan
How about a new wizard? You could have a shortcut on the view toolbar?
Hi Jody, Paul,
Just want to clarify some details about the âfolderâ grouping functionality:
- How is a folder added? Toolbar button/context menu? Or are the folders specified with the data?
Thanks,
Naz Chan
Updated the docs with this example; including an example showing how to change layer stuff with a command.
You will need to do something like this when you toggle visibility.
- ILayer - read-only from any thread
- Layer - only modify from a map command issued via map.sendCommandASync( command ) method

Noted on this. Thanks!
Had a quick look at LayerInteractionPropertyPage.
This seems to be the check:
if( layer.getInteraction( Interaction.BACKGROUND ) ){

Hi Paul,
Can you give me details on the item #2 below?
Thanks,
Naz Chan
1. In the current Layers View, there are Style, Mylar, Zoom buttons, will these be retained in the Legend View?
Sure; we will need to balance between the space in the view toolbar; with any leftovers going into the view menu.
2. For the toggle background layers functionality, what are considered background layers?
The one marked as background; paul made a flag we could check.
3. The functionality for the ordering of layers, will through a context menu? Toolbar buttons?
Probably both:
1) for view menu you can make an action that is enabled when the selection is a layer
2) same deal with context menu
There should already be a move up and move down command which your action can submit to the Map when pressed.
4. For the consider part of the RFC, the grid toggle functionality will be to toggle just the grid layer?
- What will be the default behaviour? Shown/hidden?
Um - toggled if a grid layer is present in the layer list (and turned visible); otherwise it would be up.
- Will the layer be auto-added on first open of the view?
Sure; do one pass of the layers list and see if you find a grid to turn visible first. If not add one to the top of the list.
If you are using one of the edit tools; and cycle through the list of snapping options you can watch a grid be automatically added and removed this way already.
- Will this override the 'toggle map graphics' functionality?
Not related; the map graphics toggle is only controlling if the layers are listed in the legend view.
The grid toggle is controlling if they grid is visible on the map.
So you can toggle the grid on and off; it does not matter if it is shown in the legend view or not.
