Yes, that's what I meant.

Maybe an unchecked > layer should show a partly checked state in that case. No no, I don't think so. The only way for layers to be visible in the canvas would be for both them and all their ancestor groups to be checked. That's my understanding of the suggested behavior. So if there's a problem of sync between checked status of a layer and its visibility on the canvas is the contrary one: a layer can be checked _but_ not visible because any of its ancestors are unchecked. A "partially checked" kind of visual feedback could be useful for those cases: whenever a group is unchecked, all checked discendent become "half-checked" and you can only switch between unchecked and half-checked by acting on a single layer in that state. --strk; _______________________________________________ Qgis-developer mailing list Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer
