[suggestion] Use layer name as filename

[Shohreh]

Hello,

When exporting a layer, Umap uses the map's name, forcing the user to manually rename each file (eg. mymap(3).gpx → mylayer.gpx).

I suggest using the layer's name instead.

Cheers,

@Shohreh if you only want one layer data, you can use for now the "Download" button on the layer advanced properties:

@Aurelie-Jallut we also could add a button in the browser for direct download of a single layer, but two questions:

• this will not follow the current download pattern, which only downloads the visible data (in multiple layers if any), while this link would download all the data of on layer
• this will add one more button in a toolbox which is already quite full, should we in that case add a "more" button (like three vertical dots), for "secondary" actions (like delete and download, maybe edit in the table editor…) ?

Something like this:

• We could say that if the layer is hidden, then the feature is disabled (like for the other)
• I agree, we can’t add many more buttons here and it's a good idea to add the delete and perhaps the edit in data table. it will help to streamline the interface and keep the features into a hierarchy :)

Thanks for the info. It involves a lot more clickings and only exports in Geojson (I prefer GPX) — switch to Edit mode, click on "Manage layers", edit layer, click on "Advanced actions", and finally click on Download — but it does the job until an easier solution comes up.
