I have a View, with a large number of OL-displays, all providing filtering of one type of content on my site.
This in itself work really well, but because of the large number of filters, gives a bad UI, the list is longer than some smaller screens. What I would like to do is group the filters together.

Has anyone attempted that before? Should I/Do I need to write a new UI layer from scratch? Any pointers to where I should even begin, so that I don't waste a lot of hours on initial and futile attempts would be greatly appreciated.

I had this problem - mainly with the select list running off the screen in mobile devices and not being scrollable.

If you can find a logic to group your layers then you should be able to use Views filters to bring more data into one overlay. It depends on the structure of your content.

Hey. You have to write your own layer chooser. You can find a pretty good example in https://drupal.org/project/openlayers_plus
