Image moving between zoom levels about mapview HOT 6 CLOSED

The zoom levels I have added are as follows:

mapView.addZoomLevel(500,1500, filepath,downsample,500,500); mapView.addZoomLevel(1000,3000, filepath,downsample,500,500); mapView.addZoomLevel(2000,6000, filepath,downsample,500,500); mapView.addZoomLevel(3000,9000, filepath,downsample,500,500); mapView.addZoomLevel(4000,12000, filepath,downsample,500,500);

Does the fact the relationship between the zoom levels matter? I've noticed that if I remove the 3000,9000 level the problem no longer appears.

Cheers,
Phil

the widget expects each successive zoom level to be twice as large as the one preceding it. it shows the largest at 1.0 to 0.500001 scale, then the next largest at 0.5 to 0.250001, etc. That's why removing the 3000,9000 set "fixes" it - since that's the only one that's not twice as large as the previous. LMK if that doesn't make sense.

I also faced this issue and couldn't understand the cause until I read this issue.
In my opinion this behavior doesn't make much sense, as it leads developers to think that there is an issue with the tiled images.
I would expect either that addZoomLever throws an exception if the zoomLevels are not "good", or that any zoom level can be added (which would be much better in my opinion).
Either way, the error should probably not be treated "silently".

there's no way to determine if a zoom level is "good" or not, and the dimensions don't have to be exactly half/double. On most of the apps I've produced with this widget, the zoom level dimensions vary somewhat, which generally ends up clipping or expanding the bottom and right borders, but you might have different aspect ratios on different zoom levels, for example, which is supported. There's also the ability to display marker sets for specific zoom levels.

In general, I don't consider this behavior to be an error, although the docs should probably be updated to state this clearly.

Perfect - I've updated my implementation. I really appreciate you confirming this for me.

Thanks

@phil-applegate TileView has been released and would support the levels as you have them listed in #56 (comment) (although the signature is a little different now). TileView does not require "bit-shifted" levels, and detail levels can be added for any float value (e.g., 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 2.0).
