[Users] Fwd: GeoExt.LegendPanel too slow with too many sublayers

[Andreas Hocevar]

Hi,

just an idea (untested): try to create your LegendPanel *after* the tree, and after the map is rendered (e.g. in the Tree's or the MapPanel's "render" event).

The reason why I think this should work is because the tree, while it builds, will cause the layers to be configured with *only* the *visible* sublayers.

Regards,
Andreas.
