This PR updates categorical palettes with additional palettes. One has 20 categories and the other has 30 categories. This will help users with higher cardinality fields.

This PR highlighted an error with blended vector layers that super._syncData is skipped when new source data is not needed. Skipping super._syncData could prevent style meta changes from gettin picked up and re-synced.

tested for both fill and border color palettes

This makes it more evident that legends by the same field should show different properties together to avoid legends that tall and with so much white space. This rings a bell of an issue, but I haven't found it, should I create it?

Thanks, I will put this on hold since the example I used was rather stupid since I could simply put a zero width 🙃, and I can't find another good use case for that situation. The other variable I think would fit in this case is shape, but still not really clear to me. Sorry for the noise.

This is great! It allows for much more colorful and informative maps. Functionally it expands the utility of maps and code-wise, it looks really good.

The one issue I have is the same one cited above by @jsanz with the height of the legend. It's hard for me to consider this a separate issue though. I understand you could argue this issue always existed, but having this many categories hits a tipping point where it seems like there should be an accompanying solution possibly in the form of some combination of the following (apologies if I'm missing any history on any of these):

  • Accordion approach so other categories close when one opens
  • Consolidation of shapes and outlines, or maybe show them next to each other if not possible?
  • Some form of limiting or scrolling of categories

I also understand we're trying to squeeze a lot in what is both a legend and an interactive control interface which I think is why this is getting harder.

From a functional point of view, I don't see any issues with adding these two new categorical palettes. Tested locally on Firefox and Chromium.

I have a couple of comments about the Other category, but since it applies to all palettes I will put them into a new request.

@aaronjcaldwell we already offer scrolling for large legends, limiting further the height feels too complex for the user. A different approach for categorical maps may be worth exploring, something like what we have in visualize where by default legend is set up on the right, so vertical layout as we do, but it's also possible to put them on top or the bottom of the panel, so horizontal layout. We could have a setting in the layer for allowing the legend to have multiple columns, or just to flow horizontally as in our other charts.

Also as you mention, maybe we could combine different variables horizontally, but maybe that could be confusing, I'd need to see this in a mockup or something. The vertical layout for different variables seems to work pretty well to me, even we could maybe improve the layout a bit. In the following gif I show a layer with all variables activated, it's impossible to say to which variable they apply, right?

Allowing for more categories is value added and the legend does scroll when the page height is reached. Any problems with merging this as is?

@jsanz @nreese I'm sorry, the scrolling suggestion wasn't very specific. I understand the current vertical scrolling behavior, I was referring to some way of limiting the size of the container containing the labels specifically to something scrollable. I'm not 100% sold on that solution either (no one likes scrollable containers in scrollable containers) but mostly just spitballing ideas.

No objections to merging.
