Which part? The spherical-mercator example shows how to use a custom function to load tiles from a Google-like tile layout (via the OSM tiles, one of the more widely used like-google tile layouts). Having an example which shows all the various getLonLatFromPixel stuff isn't so important to me (maybe others think it matters): I think we've got a couple of those based on click events and so on already. Reprojecting the center point from lonlat to spherical mercator is done in a couple demos, but I suppose it could use an example of its own: however, I'd likely want to make it better documented (more text) rather than just more code, since 'more code' isn't the ansewr for helping people understand the problem. http://crschmidt.net/~crschmidt/spherical_mercator.html#reprojecting-points is my solution for that, rather than an example, though I know that I haven't pushed hard enough on it yet. So, what do you think? Regards, -- Christopher Schmidt MetaCarta _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] http://openlayers.org/mailman/listinfo/users
