Extension:Layers
REL1_39 (LTS) (Mediawiki 1.39 to 1.43) has been updated to resolve errors
and to add some missing key features.
I have confirmed that it is working on MW1.39.7 but more testing is needed.
I have not tested all features.

Linking:
[[File:image.png | layers=3Dlayer-set | layerslink=3Deditor]] opens the edi=
tor
to the named layer set.
[[File:image.png | layers=3Dlayer-set | layerslink=3Deditor-newtab]] opens =
the
editor to the named layer set in a new tab.
[[File:image.png | layers=3Dlayer-set]] opens to the image's 'File:' page.

Closing the editor returns to the previous page and not the 'File:' page.

[[File:image.png | layers=3Dlayer-set | layerslink=3Dviewer]] opens a full =
size
'lightbox' of the image.

The REL1_39 branch has not been tested as extensively as the 'main' branch.
Please provide feedback if you find issues on either branch and I will try
to resolve them quickly.

I will continue to focus on the 'main' branch (MW 1.44+).
If there are features in the 'main' branch that you would like to see in
the REL1_39 branch, please ask and I will do my best to port them over.

Thanks,
Paul Vodrazka
