Not Zooming to Project

Closed this issue · 2 comments

both @joewheaton and @lauren-herbine noted that ArcRAVE is not zooming to a project extent when first adding layers.

I don't think this was ever a feature? It never did this zooming?

If we really want this, perhaps we limited it to adding a project to the map and there are no other layers in the map (i.e. the user has not interacted with the map and set an extent that they want. In other words, we are not trampling on an extent they have already set)

@philipbaileynar you're probably right- I think I may be spoiled since I use Q almost exclusively now! Q and WebRave do this automatic zooming, so perhaps we were just thinking of that

@lauren-herbine this is not a RAVE feature, but is just a feature in both QGIS and ArcGIS, of when you add the first layer to the map with data, it zooms to the extent of that data. If you open a project in an existing map, it will not zoom to it. I don't think we need this.

RE-Open if I am misunderstanding something.
