Hi experts,
One of my users wants to visualize the federal state borders in his German maps, e.g. the borders of Bavaria. Is this possible? How? Do I need to implement this in my map application, or is it possible only by changing the xMap configuration? (xMap 2 onPrem in use)
Generally, Is the information about federal state borders available in xMap, at all?

Use case:
When checking tours on his map, the user wants to see the borders as this is relevant for regional holidays, which are not applicable in all states.

Regards,
Frederik

Hello Frederik,

the approach depends on the API in use. In xServer1 you can configure the server to consider a rendering profile. This is also described in this article.

Such INI files contain hundreds of keys which influence

• colors
• line widths
• fonts
• font sizes
• ... much more

For the example I manipulated the [config.background.region.width] and it's adjacent properties/keys.
Creating such profiles is some kind of science. Are you already aware of how to deal with them? Best regards,
The Expert
