Hello Enoch 1) I will try an get an example to run so I can show you - I'll have to set up everything up and I'm not sure if I can do that so easily so it is accessible from the web. I'll tell you if I was able to do so.
Basically I experience EXACTLY the same behaviour as you see in maptype-base.html. I am using Windows 7 and Browser IE9 and Chrome 16.0.912.77m. 2) No I cannot confirm that. I just enabled to show the border in my example and I see the same behaviour as maptype-base.html. So the border of the tiles immediately show up (which for me means, that the new tiles are immediately loaded) but the old tiles hang around for 6 seconds. I understand that the new tiles are opaque which is correct. I think that the old tiles hang around for such a long time is new. So to summarize: The problem you see with maptype-base.html is exactly my problem. The old tiles hang around for too long.
