Hi, I'm trying to understand sense and meaning of the zoom level strings for encoded polylines. For this I used this official utility http://code.google.com/intl/en/apis/maps/documentation/polylineutility.html
but I have difficulities to understand the results shown. This source: http://code.google.com/intl/en/apis/maps/documentation/polylinealgorithm.html states "An encoded level value of 3 in this case would ensure that a point appears in all zoom level, while a level of 0 will ignore points specified beyond zoom level 5." I used the utility above to specify 3 points: The first near SF at level 3. Second near LV with level 0 and last near LA with level 3. And I expected to see a line from SF via LV to LA, probably with appearing/disappearing parts, depending on zoom. But I got a straight line between SF and LA, remaining unchanged, regardless of what zoom level the map was using. With level 3 for all points the line was drawn correctly. I can confirm the statement above: 3 shows all, but my "0" point wasn't connected at all. Is anybody able to explain the impact of zoom level strings to the appearance of the polyline? I hope, this question is at least API related, so if somebody want's to comment: Wrong group... please don't.
