Is it possible to add to the attribution statement in the lower right corner of the map when I use data from another external source?
For instance we use data from this source which requires attribution: 3D BAG

Hey @thomasvdl ,

I assume you mean something like this right?

I can imagine a view having a Description-like icon like this as an input, where we can put in some text (like vkt.GeometryView(…., description=”Data from 3D Bag...”).

I’ll create a feature request!

@rvandijk yes, the option to include custom text after “… GIS User Community”
The description attribute looks like a logical solution to me.
It should be available for vkt.MapView and vkt.MapAndDataView and possibly also for other views.

Hello @rvandijk
Do you have an update on this?
I do not find this in the list with feature requests.

Hey @thomasvdl ,

Would a description on the View’s name also suffice?

As this is already possible using

@vkt.MapView("My map view", description="This text is shown in the view's tooltip")
def my_map_view(self, params, **kwargs):
    ...

Let me know!

Thank you @rvandijk that sounds like a solution, although I would still like to be able to do the attirbution in the map itself.

Hi @thomasvdl,

Since this is currently not supported as functionality in the SDK I moved this topic to the feature request category.

Kind regards,
