[BasicUI] Extended default settings for BasicUI sitemaps #2594

Open multimartin opened 4 months ago

multimartin commented 4 months ago

In OH 4.2.x for BasicUI most settings for the sitemaps appearance has been moved to the settings "wheel" on the sitemap page - and stored in the browser. As a user of sitemaps from headless systems also, where I call and render html-pages with a shell command - I have no possibility to set and store the settings for such a client.

Would it be possible to keep the option of setting all general settings for BasicUI sitemaps in the main web UI - whilst still keeping the option to override those default settings in the individual browser?

So basically add more default options in the main UI - similar to how it could be set pre-4.2.x? Right now you can only enable/disable inline SVG and set the name of the default sitemap.

Having same settings at two different places will confuse everybody and makes no sense IMHO.

This is a very unusual way to use UI I guess. For my curiosity, what is your usage exactly ? One option could be to add new optional query parameters to the Basic UI URL (one for each setting) that will overwrite the browse settings.
