!!!note
Cached tiles works with WMS only with standard gridsets (exponential). When MapStore uses custom scales, the tile cache can not be used. This because WMS TileGrid for OpenLayers (internal MapStore mapping library) and the TileGrid generated by GeoServer have different origins (top-left vs bottom-left). While for exponential resolutions the top left remains fixed (because there is only an integer number of tiles in the interval between top-left and bottom-left corner of the bbox, 1, 2, 4, 8 ....) with custom resolutions the number of tiles is not integer, so the coordinate of the tile of top-left may vary across scales. More details about this limitation in this [issue](https:/geosolutions-it/MapStore2/issues/9025) on GitHub.

!!!Warning
On the *Display* tab, only the following options are available for a **3D Tile** layer:

* The **Visibility limits** to display the layer only within certain scale limits, as reported above.

* The **Height Offset** above the ground.
