Description

Improve the UX of the LayerDownload widget to provide a smoother and more intuitive download process for the end user.
This includes setting default values, improving label clarity, reorganizing the UI based on selected service, and integrating download functionality into TableWidget.

• Set all default values if possible:

  • Default File Format: Raster → GeoTIFF Vector → Shapefile
  • If the layer has filters applied → preselect Download filtered dataset

• Improve the Service selector:

  • Replace technical names (e.g. WPS, WFS) with user-friendly labels
  • Add an helper text to explain each service and write all texts are internationalized (i18n)

• Improve the File Format selector:

  • Unify and clean up list of formats names shared between WPS and WFS (ex: wfs-collection-X.X -> GML.X.X)

• Reorganize UI depending on selected service:

  • WPS:
  • Add expandable Advanced section
  • Move non-essential selectors into Advanced
  • WFS and WPS:
  • Move Spatial Reference into Advanced
  • Keep only format selection in main view
  • Raster layers:
    • Move Crop dataset to current viewport checkbox to Advanced

• Integration with TableWidget:

  • Add a "Download Data" entry to the widget's menu that opens the LayerDownload modal, to positioning at last like charts now:
