Colour legend for populated areas in National view #180

Open catcad opened 4 years ago

This morning I got the feedback that in the national view, it is not clear that the yellow areas correspond to populated areas. Shall we, therefore, add a legend in the map above the green/grey legend, with the information on grid (as in state-level) and populated areas? @christian-rli: what are your thoughts? The other option would probably be a yellow icon in the sidebar on the left? Not sure what the best way forward is in that regard.

When there are 2 available buttons, I would assume people would toggle them on an off to see what they do and they would then see that the yellow areas are linked to populated areas. But I also know my mother is afraid of clicking buttons on websites. We could make the color of the toggle button yellow instead of green?

I can relate to mothers' fear of buttons, but introducing a new style color for a single element is inconsistent and perhaps even a bit overkill. A legend is probably the way to go.
