Managing WMS Layers and Configuration

Spatial Manager allows you to easily manage Web Map Service (WMS) layers and its configuration in the repository. From the Services menu at the top of the application window, you can modify global WMS settings, view capabilities, and manage WMS layers and organization layers. Any changes you make to the WMS service configuration are automatically loaded. See Web Map Service (WMS) in the Services section of the Spectrum Spatial Guide for more information.

The sample configuration file that is provided demonstrates its capabilities via its folder structure; for example, that you can have can have coordinate systems on organizational layers so that children will inherit them. It also shows how a WMS layer can reference multiple named layers.
Important: Manual editing of WMS config XML files should only be done by advanced users who require functionality that is not supported by the current version of Spatial Manager. Unexpected results may occur when using a manually edited configuration file with Spatial Manager.
