The visual representation of a map session are determined by the style feature. Certain factors like zoom extent and label features are common for all styles. This panel is accessible only after a layer is selected. Several components are available on top of the panel to manage and maintain every layer.
-
Layer Name - You must give a title to the map layer which can be edited anytime.
Zoom to Layer - You can view the extent of the selected geometry.
- View - You can select between map or table view. The default view is Map, in which map layers are displayed next to layer panel. When you toggle to Table view, the screen divides horizontally (by default) into two sections, the former displays map layers and the latter displays table with all layer data attributes and values in it. The top row of the Table has following components:
-
Layer Name - Name of the map layer that you provided.
-
Fullscreen - You can expand the Table to the entire screen.
-
Horizontal - You can divide the screen into two sections horizontally, with map layers above and data table below. The layers can be switched by selecting the name of the layer on the top of the table.
-
Vertical - You can divide the screen into two sections vertically, with map layers to the left and data table to the right. The layers can be switched by selecting them from drop-down on the top of the table.
