Menu
I am using Mapbox GL JS and I would like to allow users to change a map's background style from streets to satellite, while showing a polygon layer above the map background.
I have adapted the Mapbox example, but I can't work out how to stop map.setStyle from setting the new style above (and thus hiding) my polygon layer. I would like it to change without hiding the polygon layer.
Before switching layers:
After switching layers - polygon overlay missing, would like to carry on showing it:

Mapbox GL JS does not have the concept of a "base layer" and "overlays." All layers of all maps are drawn with the same basic primitives.
If you need to persist one or more custom layers while switching between the provided Mapbox styles, you may choose to
