Map Layer widget and List widget in a tabbed sidebar?

ChrisH2

I have an ExB configuration that's using the Map Layer widget in a sidebar.

I need to add a List widget to this application so that users can easily see a record summary, navigate  between records in one of the layers, and zoom the map accordingly (i.e. typical List functionality)

I've been able to add the List widget underneath the Map Layer widget in the existing sidebar however there's not enough functional room for this to work in all scenarios.

Is it possible to have the List widget behind the Map Layer widget (and within the same sidebar), with tabs at the bottom to allow you to switch between them, like how you stack widgets in dashboards?

Alternatively is there a way to launch a list widget from a button on a widget toolbar, so it can be removed when not in use?

Hi @ChrisH2,

You can overlap widgets by adding a Grid widget to your Sidebar widget. I got it by following these steps:

1. Add a Sidebar widget, put the Grid widget in the dock and the Map widget in the main section

2. Add a Map layers widget in the Grid widget

3. Drag and drop a List widget onto the Map layers widget

Alternatively, you can use the Widget Controller widget to open widgets on fixed positions. It allows you to decide which position/size to open the widget panel. Please see the widget documentation for more infomation.
