Overview

The Overview element provides a control of an overview map, similar to the OpenLayers Overview control. This element though is easier to use when custom styling is needed.

You can define the size of your overview window and a position. Refer to a layerset that you defined before for the services to display in the overview map. The overview map can be fixed or can zoom when you zoom in/out in the main map. You also can define whether the overview map is minimized or maximized on start of the application.
