Style Layers

  • The base style layer class from which all other style layer classes inherit. Style layers allow runtime customization of all map styling properties.

    You should use the concrete subclasses of MGLBaseStyleLayer (which conform to MGLStyleLayer) to style fill, line, symbol, and other layer types.

  • A map style’s background layer is the bottommost layer and is used to style a color or pattern to show below all other map features. You can query an MGLMapView for its style and obtain the background layer using the -[MGLStyle layerWithIdentifier:] method and passing background for the identifier.
