2. Previous XYZ Services

There are 3 main menus in the adding XYZ service panel. There is a 'History' button under the third main menu. In this menu, XYZ layers added to the map are saved. Thus, you can easily add an XYZ layer you added before to the map without having to re-enter the parameters.

Adding XYZ Services

The layer we added in the first step is now displayed in history. It is enough to scroll the box to add it back to the map. If desired, easily remove the layer from the history with the "Delete" button.

Adding XYZ Services

When you press the button, the XYZ layer is automatically added to the map again.
