Changelog

Added ⭐

  • Refactoring of the legend:
    • Add checkbox in the legend to enable/disable some symbols within the layer
    • Add symbols of the legend item by default for all layers and rendering rules
    • Group project-background-color to display the default background color
    • Use any base layer as a background, the usage of legacy keywords osm-mapnik etc. is now deprecated
    • These new background layers must be in a group called baselayers.
  • Improve the "QGIS theme"
  • Editing capabilities: Better user experience with 1-n relations: the data tables of the related child layers
    now respect the position configured in the QGIS editing drag&drop designer.
  • Popup/Editing - Add a combobox in the popup to allow creating a new child feature for the related
    layers. This will allow creating child features directly from the parent popup.
  • New display for measurements on the map when drawing
  • Better management of QGIS projects about versions (desktop, plugin versions, etc.)
  • Form filter: Allow using a second field for the numeric type like it is already possible for dates.
    This is useful when the layer features contain two fields describing a minimum and maximum value of the same property.
  • Action module:
    • New support for project and layer scopes: the actions can now be used outside the popup, for a specific chosen layer or as a generic project action.
      • A new web component <lizmap-action-selector> is used to let the user choose an action and run it (for the layer and project scopes)
      • A new dock is available and shows the list of the project actions, with buttons to run an action and another to reset the results.
      • For the layers with actions configured, a click on the layer in the legend also shows the action selector and buttons and allows running this layer actions
    • An SVG icon can be used instead of a bootstrap icon as a background of the popup action buttons
    • the current map extent and map center are sent as parameters in WKT format (projection EPSG:4326) and can be used in the PostgreSQL function
    • Actions can be run from external JavaScript scripts, for example: 
      // Run an action
lizMap.mainLizmap.action.runLizmapAction(actionName, scope = 'feature', layerId = null, featureId = null, wkt = null);
// Reset the action
lizMap.mainLizmap.action.resetLizmapAction()
    • A WKT in EPSG:4326 can also be sent as an additional parameter.
      This is only possible when running the action with JavaScript.
      This allows to send a geometry to be used by the PostgreSQL action
      (for example, to get data from another table with geometries intersecting this passed WKT geometry)
    • The JavaScript and HTML code has been modernized (no more jQuery calls, usage of web components, etc.)
  • Dataviz The editor can now configure how the plots will be organized in the web interface.
    • A new Drag & Drop layout tab has been added in Lizmap plugin Dataviz tab,
      which allows to create tabs and groups like it can be done for forms.
  • New print configurations. For each layout, you can:
    • enable/disable it
    • set allowed groups
    • set formats and default one
    • set DPIs and default one
    • set a custom icon for a QGIS atlas layout in the feature's popup
  • New display of print options
    • print area is now displayed as a mask on the map
    • an advanced panel allows you to:
      • set X/Y parameters for the grid
      • set main map rotation
      • set DPI
  • Add a button to paste a geometry
  • Add MGRS coordinates display on the map

Fixed 🐛

  • The "locate by layer" selector shows the layer title when unselected on mobile
  • Display the reverse geometry button only for linestring and polygons, not for points

  • Update home page title configuration
