It is possible to define more than one Basemap. If there is more than one basemap in the map application you can switch between them and present your map content on several map backgrounds.

You can choose the order in which the layers are drawn by moving the layers up and down via drag and drop. The layer at the top will be shown first. If necessary, type in an adequate name for the button. To do this click on the appropriate button.
