Description

When you have multiple groups nested, it might be too much to "click" your way back to the map canvas.
Let's find a way how to close the layers panel quickly.

Possibilities:

  • turn the layers list into drawer -> you could then swipe it down
  • add button to close the page

Research direction

Review the mobile layer tree and layers-panel flow, focusing on how users return to the map canvas after navigating nested groups. Compare the proposed drawer swipe-down and close-button approaches, then define one interaction and clear acceptance criteria for quickly exiting the layer tree.
