Remarks

This property determines how map images are retrieved when two or more map resources have been added to the MapResourceManager associated with the Map control. If only one map resource is defined, then the control uses the value of Browser (see below).

This property has two valid values: Browser and WebTier. Browser (the default) causes the browser to retrieve the images for each map resource (service) from the GIS server separately. The browser then overlays the map images in the browser. If transparency is set for the images on top, the combined images appear together as if a single map.

The WebTier value causes the server to retrieve all images from GIS servers in the application. The server merges the images into a single image for each map tile. It then sends the image back to the client (either as a byte stream or image URL, depending on the UseMimeData setting).

It is recommended to use Browser blending unless the browser or users have problems accessing images this way.

For detailed discussion of blending, see the Developer Help under the Map control topic.
