[Geoserver-devel] Layer Groups and Queryable

Hi,
I noticed that layer groups are queryable only if all the layers that it contains are queryable.

Is this a feature or a bug?

I mean, I would expect that if at least one layer is queryable the group is queryable too (and only the queryable layers will be queried when querying the group). Can we consider changing the current behaviour a fix?

Another request: let’s say that all the layers of a group are queriable, so the entire group is queryable. In this case I have GetFeatureInfo results also for layers that are not visible at the given scale, if those layers are raster (it doesn’t happen for vectors, apparently). I would say that at least this is a bug.

Opinions?

Thanks
Mauro

An accident? :slight_smile:

An improvement :slight_smile:

Another request: let's say that all the layers of a group are queriable,
so the entire group is queryable. In this case I have GetFeatureInfo
results also for layers that are not visible at the given scale, if those

Agreed
