Has anybody used the map properties to control the center and zoom level of a map?
According to the manual:

quote:

By default, the map viewer determines a bounding box that completely encapsulates all
the markers in your data source and chooses a zoom level that nicely bounds your data.

Instead, you can specify your own initial position and initial zoom level in the map properties
included in your request.

The manual says to use:

  
initPos:{
center:[latitude, longitude],
level: zoom}

Here is what I entered:

  
"mapProperties": {
   "engine": "leaflet",
      "leafLet":{
         "initPos": {
             "center": ["31.99", "34.96"],
             "level": "4"
         }
      }
},

and I was IGNORED

Any ideas?

I think initPos requires numbers not in double quote.

[31.99, 34.96]

  
"mapProperties": {
"engine": "leaflet",
"leaflet": {
"initPos": {
"center": [31.99, 34.96],
"level": 4
},

Tried it. Same output. Ignored

I just tried this and it seems to work for me. It's an example right out of the doc with your Lat/Long. Can you test it on your version?

Babak,
Thanks.
Yes it works here, which would mean that I have to add to my example some of your "layers".

I'll give it a try.

Hi Babak,
I tried using your *GRAPH_JS with my example. Nothing doing.
So here is my example. Could you try it on your machine?

When I run this the map is reduced to show only the 2 points, instead of being centered and showing all the country. When I comment out the line the WHERE CITY line I get the whole country.
Thanks again for taking the time.

I couldn't get your data to load so I put it in Excel and uploaded it into SQL Server. Other than that and switching the INCLUDE=Warm to INCLUDE=IBFS:/FILE/IBI_HTML_DIR/ibi_themes/Warm.sty,$

I kept everything else the same and I get a map with the two bubbles with Jerusalem in the center of the map.

This what I get when the condition is set:
WHERE CITY CONTAINS 'Jerusalem' OR 'Nazareth';

Without the condition it is:
All Cities

What I hoped for the first map was to have the second map with just the two cities.
Is this what you get?
If so, could it be the version (8.2M)? Running under AppStudio? Any other idea?

Without the WHERE I get a whole lot of other bubbles but the center of the map is still the same zoom location. Can you download and install 8203 on a test machine? This seems to be working for me.

Thanks!
I'll ask my manager for the 8203 version.

Well, I'd do that and at the same time open a case with IB tech support to get to the bottom of this. 8.202 isn't that old and it should respect the initial position you're setting. Your finding might be something they've already fixed.
