Changelog

Added ⭐

  • New theme of the Lizmap Web Client interface
  • Dataviz
    • Use the popup title when showing plot in a popup
    • Respect the new option "trigger filter" to avoid filtering the plot on layer filtered
    • 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.
  • 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" feature
  • Editing
    • 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.
    • 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.
    • Add some constraints : distance, angle when adding a new geometry
    • Add a button to paste a geometry
  • Drawing tool
    • New display for measurements on the map
    • Set feature's color individually
    • Delete features individually
    • Draw text on the map canvas
      • Rotation
      • Scaling
  • 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.)
  • Review of the permalink feature
    • The URL is now automatically updated when we pan or zoom, or check/uncheck some layers
  • 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 user interface for printing
      • 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
