Each Lucity Security Group can be granted access to multiple GIS Views. To control which view opens by default, an administrator must establish default views.
There are two types of default views:
Global Default
Applies to every Lucity user.
Group Default
Serves as the default for a specific Group. A Group Default view overrides the Global Default.
For the Group Default map to apply to a user, he or she must:
be part of the assigned Security Group; and
have that Group set as his or her Default Rules Group in Lucity Security.
When the Web Map is opened using the Show in Map tool the following logic is employed to identify which GIS View should be used.
The system will first try and use the GIS View that is associated to the Lucity module view in which the Show in Map button was clicked.
If no GIS View has been associated to the module view, or the map is not being launched from a module view, the system will open the GIS View associated to the user’s default rules group.
If there isn’t a GIS View associated to the user’s default rules group, the system will open the system default GIS View.
If no GIS View has been assigned the system default, a random GIS View will be used.
Open the GIS View that you want to be a Global Default.
In the Web Map, click the button. The Design Mode pop-up appears:
Select Default Settings from the pop-up. The following screen appears:
Click the Make This GIS View The Global Default button.
Click the Close button.
Click the Save button on the Design Mode pop-up. The selected GIS View now serves as the default for any Lucity users not assigned to a Default Rules Group or whose Default Rules Group does not have a Default GIS View.
Open the GIS View that you want to be a Group Default for editing.
In the Web Map, click the button. The Design Mode pop-up appears:
Select Default Settings from the pop-up. The following screen appears.
In the Available Groups grid on the left, locate the Group to which you would like to assign this GIS View as a default.
Click the Assign button next to the group name. The group name appears in the Groups Using This Map as Default list on the right.
Repeat Steps 4-5 for any other Groups that should use this GIS View as their default view.
Click the Close button.
Click the Save button on the Design Mode pop-up. This GIS View now serves as the default for any user who has one of the designated Groups set as his or her Default Rules Group.
