Value

Note

When used with a leaflet() map object, these functions don't actually remove the features from the map object, but simply add an operation that will cause those features to be removed after they are added. In other words, if you add a polygon "foo" and the call removeShape("foo"), it's not smart enough to prevent the polygon from being added in the first place; instead, when the map is rendered, the polygon will be added and then removed.

For that reason, these functions aren't that useful with leaflet map objects and are really intended to be used with leafletProxy instead.

WMS tile layers are extensions of tile layers, so they can also be removed or cleared via removeTiles() or clearTiles().
