Reference to WMS Map Service of Map Collection

Property

Description

Related map service

Related WMS map service.

Visible in map?

Used to define the initial visibility of the service.

If visible is not specified explicitly ("auto"), the map service is initially displayed.

- off: the map service is not shown (switched to invisible).

- on: the map service is shown (visible).

Visible in TOC?

Used to define the initial visibility of the element in the TOC.

If visible is not specified explicitly ("auto"), the element is initially displayed in the TOC.

- off: the element is not shown (switched to invisible).

- on : the element is shown (visible).

Minimum scale

Minimum scale.

If set to 0 then this value does not get taken into consideration and the layer visibility scale range specified in the MXD document is relevant only.

If, e.g. for scales < 1:100,000 the map should not be displayed any more, then configure the value 100000.

Note: This parameter does not affect the scale levels taken into consideration by the MapTip tool. This parameter is exclusively used to reduce map image transfer between client and server.

Maximum scale

Maximum scale.

If set to 0 then this value does not get taken into consideration and the layer visibility scale range specified in the MXD document is relevant only.

If, e.g. for scales > 1:100,000 the map should not be displayed any more, then configure the value 100000.

Note: This parameter does not affect the scale levels taken into consideration by the MapTip tool. This parameter is exclusively used to reduce map image transfer between client and server.

Expanded in TOC?

Specifies if the map service is displayed expanded (on) or collapsed (off) in the table of content.

Note: Default value auto provides expanded map services when starting a WebOffice project.

Expandable in TOC?

Specifies if the map service can be expanded or not. If not then the user is only able to switch the visibility of the whole service but not for individual layers of this service.

Visibility changeable by user?

Specifies if the map service visibility can be changed by the user.

Note: Please consider, that the map service visibility cannot be changed within a basemap view. 

Transparency level [%]

Transparency level [%].

Useful for blending map services.

Note: If a value other then 0 is used, performance may drop down because of necessary image blending.

WMS getMap URL

Specifies a WMS GetMap URL including the layer visibility settings as part of the getMap request.

Note: Therefore, it is necessary to add REQUEST=GetMap and the parameter LAYERS=<layer_list> to the URL. Detailed information can be found at http://webhelp.esri.com/arcims/9.3/general/mergedprojects/wms_connect/wms_connector/get_map.htm

Note: With this attribute you can just define layers to be activated at project initialization. Dynamically added WMS services do not have this attribute.

Note: When looking for the layer names to be used in the URL be sure to use parameter "Name" defined in the WMS XML file!

Name of a WMS layer
