GeoMedia WebMap Publisher 6.1.4 migration hint

posted Feb 15, 2009 4:31 PM by Shaun Falconer
After upgrading a GeoMedia WebMap Publisher 6.0 meta-database to version 6.1.4, do the following before using 'Write Legends' for the first time:
  1. Start GeoMedia and connect to the upgraded meta-database using the GeoMedia WebMap Publisher Administrator
  2. Use 'Publish and Populate the GeoWorkspace' > 'Populate the GeoWorkspace from Metadata' tool
    Each map in the meta-database will be restored to a map window in the GeoWorkspace
  3. The 'Display Order' tab for each map window should be restored correctly.
    The 'Group' tab will be showing legend entries that should have been hidden.
    To correct:
    • In Display Order tab select all legend entries
    • Click on Group tab
    • any unselected entries should be hidden - select them and hide them.
  4. Use the 'Syncronized legend' button to read the updated legend.
    (Do this regardless of whether you fixed up any hidden legend entries or not)
  5. Repeat for all map windows
The above steps only have to be applied once per migration. After that you can use 'Write Legend' and 'Synchronize legend'.
 
Note: It has just come to our attention that if a legend entry has a display scale range and is set to 'Display Off', when the legend entry is turned on by an end client the legend will be set to 'Display On' instead of 'Display by Scale'. We have just started working on this issue - if it affects you please log a support call.
