Comparing this... http://www.dyasdesigns.com/egeotest/wfs-states.html I get unresponsive script alerts every time I zoom...
and this... http://www.dyasdesigns.com/egeotest/gmlusa.htm. The original source (was from the same geoserver layer) Google Maps has something called polyline/polygon encoding to allow Level of Detail at discrete zoom levels to be stored and used in rendering. (google can do this serverside within limits for kml overlays) In this case I am doing it client side and combine it with code which causes the polygons which are outside the view to be removed from display and re-added when needed.(this addressed issues of complex polygons/polylines outside the view area lagging the performance when zoomed in) The end result is faster rendering at all zooms it is slightly less clean when panning.. but.... Oh and random colors are cool.. ;-) OpenLayers should have a random color mode for WFS layers. _______________________________________________ Dev mailing list [email protected] http://openlayers.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
