Hi Al- There are currently two different zoom types in the API - the first is the normal zoom, the second is continuous zoom (enabled via .enableContinuousZoom). If neither of those are the effect you're looking for, then you're currently out of luck. We are constantly experimenting with the zoom, but I think our recent improvements (in 1.8B) may be close to our final zoom "look & feel".
I suggest compiling a SWF uses the latest SWC, and seeing if that's closer to what you're looking for. Here's one example of a recently compiled SWF without continuous zoom: http://gmaps-samples-flash.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/demos/CloudOverlayDemo/CloudOverlayDemo.html - pamela On Wed, Feb 18, 2009 at 3:11 AM, Al Mandring <allmandr...@googlemail.com> wrote: > > Hi there, > > my first post as I'm just getting into the new flash api ;-) > > Is there a way to make the zoom between levels better/smoother?
