Hi list,
Wraps up discussion in https://osgeo-org.atlassian.net/browse/GEOS-7971
This improvement suggestion wants to solve 2 issues in wms capabilities which
are currently less optimal
In WMS capabilities the service title is repeated as title of the service and
as title of the root layer, in common WMS clients both levels are displayed,
having the same title
There is no option to sort the layers in a WMS capabilities root layer, if a
wms client adds all layers at once, the layers are added alphabetically, and
not as desired, for example polygon first, then line, then point
The improvement suggestion is to facilitate to set a layergroup as rootlayer,
layers in that group can be sorted and the rootlayer will have a proper title
Requirements:
only 1 layergroup can be set as rootlayer
other layergroups should be of type container-tree, named-tree
layers not in any group are not displayed in capabilities (or added to root
layer)
In my understanding this will be a the less impact (in resources and
regression) option. Other more charming option would be to allow to sort layers
elsewhere and allow to configure the root layer separately.
Regards, Paul.
