Group Basemaps
The user has an option to smoothly blend between different map layers. To configure this, you have to create a group layer with the selected panel.
Now, select the group type "Slider".
After that drag and drop the desired basemap to the group layer with its
handle.
Now you may preview the map and blend between the basemaps.
By clicking
, you can return to the CMS.
Note: Sliders for changing the grouped basemaps are just available in the Flex client and the JS desktop client. In the mobile clients the basemaps will be listed without slider functionality.
In addition to the basemap transition, combined groups can be created. They offer you the possibility to define a specific scale range for each basemap in the group where it should be displayed.
First, select the dropdown item "Combined" when creating a group:
Note: If the map client "Flex" is selected in the CMS configuration, the item "Combined" is not available when trying to create a basemap group. In the case that a combined group has been configured with "JavaScript", the Flex-Client will display it as a slider group.
Then, drag n drop your desired basemaps into the group.
Now you can define scale ranges for each basemap by clicking the pencil button.
After saving the map, the basemaps of the configured basemap group are displayed depending on the selected map scale.
