Control Panel.

underneath a layer. It contains a small image for each unique visual feature in the layer and a short
textual description about it called the custom legend image. Administrators can determine whether a
legend item is expanded or collapsed at startup.
Support for Multiple Selections
Giving users more flexibility, Rectangle and Polyline selection tools are now available in Rest Public,
additional to the point selection tool. The Rectangle selection selects all the features that lie within a
rectangle and Polyline selection selects all the features that intersect the polyline. If multiple objects
are selected, the active selection is distinguished by a different colour and marker. Selection and
query performance has been improved for both the Rest Public and mobile versions. The colors
used for selections and active selections in Rest Public are read from the Configuration Manager,

Rest Public supports the majority of settings configured in the MWS file for improved performance
and visualization. Settings supported include zoom layering, labels, and selectability. Please note

Global Layer settings can now be added in queries to perform various search results. Similar to layer
shortcuts, users can now benefit from global layers added in the work context for queries also.
