===== Scale Limits =====

Scale Limits ensure that the dataset is visible when the view on the [[111:orbitgis:map:index|]] is between a specified scale range. Outside the scale range the dataset remains invisible. \\
When the dataset is invisible, the name of the dataset displayed in the [[111:orbitgis:datasetlist:index|]] appears //in italics//.
