Remove Need to Validate When Changing Background Layers

Suggest that a network not need to validated or show that it was edited (red circle) for only switching on/off a background (e.g., aerial)layer would be appreciated. Keeping scenarios straight is tough enough w/out the additional heart attack when I don’t recall changing anything.

    I agree with the suggestion. Changing which layers are displayed shouldn't require a commit to save something which is a non-material change to the network. The network hasn't been edited but I am sure that most users see the red circle as a prompt to validate.

    Hi, thanks for the idea. Adding and removing background layers does not require validation. It does however require a commit to save that information to the database. We won't be implementing this idea at this time but please keep the ideas coming!

    Agreed with the suggestion. You can avoid some of the heart trouble though by using the version comparison feature to see what has changed since the last commit.
