VisibleLayerList List of visible layers at startup <no layers>
SelectionLayer Layer in which objects can be selected, highlighted and properties shown. <none>
MaptipLayer Layer which displays a maptip : the maptip setting is defined in the Orbit Resource Descriptor (ORD file associated with your resource). You can use Orbit GIS to define the maptip attribute for this layer. <undefined>
HyperlinkLayer Layer that can run a hyperlink, and the attribute on which the hyperlink URL is based. The hyperlink setting is defined in the Orbit Resource Descriptor (ORD file associated with your resource). You can use Orbit GIS to define the active hyperlink attribute for this layer and the URL that must be launched formed with the attribute value. <undefined>
