KeepMyLayers automatically (or manually) resets layers in WME to a previously saved state. It can also remove locale specifications from permalinks, apply a few minor visual enhancements to native WME layers, and provides some bonus features for Beta WME testers.


Note: KeepMyLayers auto-layers reset works best when it is set to run first in Grease/TamperMonkey.

In TamperMonkey, first click on the TamperMonkey browser icon     > Click Dashboard         > Click WME KeepMyLayers to open the editing pane             > Click Settings tab                 > Change the 'Position' to 1.

In GreaseMonkey, first click on the GreaseMonkey browser icon     > Click Manage User Scripts        > Right click WME KeepMyLayers           > Select the option to Execute first.


Main feature list

  • Prevent permalinks with &layers= and etc. from changing your layer setting
  • Save multiple layer presets and quickly switch among them using the KMLayers Preset Switcher menu
  • Toggle the Preset Switcher button to force menu to stay open on-screen
  • Preview/hide the original layers from a permalink by clicking the eye icon under the WME Layers menu
  • Apply minor adjustments to the opacity of cities, area-managers, and/or roads layers to improve visibility
  • Remove locale from permalinks to prevent WME from loading in another language

Bonus features for Beta WME testers

  • Add a Beta-Production WME toggle into the side-panel for forcing permalinks to load in your desired editor
  • Replace permalink icon with Beta-Prod toggle-friendly permalinks to allow flexible switching between editing modes without having to disable the toggle (any layers or locale specifications are removed)
  • Permalinks can still be clicked or copied when WME gets stuck on the darkened screen after saving
  • Sync your KMLayers preferences and layer presets between Beta-Prod editors

Caution: Still in beta testing! Bug reports and/or suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. https://www.waze.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=819&t=172335#p1293630
