163 | | * There are currently various map decorations/elements available: legend (using G7:d.legend), barscale (using G7:d.barscale), north arrow (using G7:d.northarrow) and text (using wxPython). |
164 | | * This project would add the possibility to add shapes such rectangle or circle into the map display. Thanks to this, it would be possible to mark some places in simplified way (comparing to displaying vector point) and perhaps more importantly to manually create background for legend or text (similar to the philosophy of legend without title but possibility to add any text, so also a title). |
165 | | * Moreover, the project would implement the possibility to add any `d.*` command or their combinations (using `SimpleLayerManager`) to the map display as a smaller image. This would enable to create maps with more then one raster legend and also maps with smaller area overview or area detail in one of the corners. |
166 | | * The possibility to add external images would also significantly improve the possibilities and would enable things such as adding logos to maps. |
167 | | * Different decoration proposed here and even those already present would benefit from the map decorations/elements manager (similar manager is present in G7:g.gui.animation). |

| 164 | * This project would add the possibility to add shapes such rectangle or circles into the main map display by enhancing and creating a wxGUI front-end to the G7:d.graph module. Thanks to this, it would be possible to annotate the map in simplified way (comparable to displaying a vector point). |
| 165 | * Moreover, the project would implement the possibility to add any `d.*` command or their combinations (using `SimpleLayerManager`) to the map display as a smaller image. This would enable to create wxGUI displays with more than one raster legend and also displayed views with smaller area overview, or area detail in one of the corners. (already possible in G7:ps.map as a two step process involving the `eps` instruction) |
| 166 | * The possibility to add external images would also significantly improve the possibilities and would enable things such as adding logos to maps. For this a SVG import tool or converter would be added to the G7:d.graph module. |
