Thanks Tim! You are right, there will be many code with this assumption. It is 
true that I have only reviewed the main tools in QGIS, but these changes have 
been small or zero. At least we can know with this commit the amount de changes 
to do in the main application (100 files edited, some of them with minimum 
changes).

Alvaro

Hi
Alvaro I also think this would be very interesting to add - and timely to get 
into QGIS 3.0. Looking forward to hearing opinions from other devs. I expect 
there will be many many corner cases you will have to deal with where there is 
currently an implicit assumption that only 1 canvas exists....
Regards
Tim

Thank you very much Filipe!
The extra maps are normal windows as any dockable window in QGIS. It is a 
QDockWidget object, and your behavior is as usual.

Hi,
Really nice feature in my opinion. Out of curiosity: would it be possible to 
split Map 1 and Map 2 between two different screens? It would be really nice to 
be able to drag Map 2's window to a second screen.
Thanks
Cheers

Hi devs, I have developed an experimental code to support more than one map in 
QGIS. I created a video showing the features implemented ( 
https://vimeo.com/179982647 ).
The main features are:
   
   - New user option to enable multi map canvas mode.   

   - QGIS has one no closeable default map, and 0-N extra dockable maps.   

   - Full integration of maps in legend using a new map legend node for each 
map.   

   - Print composer supports layouts with different maps.   

   - New legend menu option to synchronize the extent of maps.   

   - Map tools and plugins work with the current selected map (The signals and 
slots to the map canvas are updated with an automatic mechanism of 
synchronization to minimize the migration of code and to preserve behavior).   


I'm aware that this is a big change in QGIS, and I am sure that this capability 
must be debated by many people (project and developer leaders...) before 
writing any code. Because of that, I have not created any QEP entry in the 
https://github.com/qgis/ QGIS-Enhancement-Proposals  page. 
I developed it to learn QGIS core and it will have work to do (plugins and 
tools). But it runs fine, and it was funny :-). If at least, it is useful for a 
day to implement this capability in QGIS or to see the amount of changes 
needed, I am satisfied.
