Description
A useful strategy for theming layers with large sets of rules is to "divide and conquer" by theming off of some kind of summary attribute or by some kind of distribution. From there the filters of the individual rules can serve a basis for a themed sub-layer filtered on the parent summary/distribution filter.
Maestro currently does not make this type of workflow easy to accomplish. All we need is a button on the layer style editor which will allow you to pick the desired rules, and it will then go off and create a new layer definition off of each selected rule, with the filter set on that particular rule's filter, the given rule and it's parent style will be the default style/rule for this new layer.
