As discussed in http://groups.google.com/group/google-maps-js-api-v3/browse_thread/thread/16a7ec0ed7b9298d, a lat-long box is specifed by it southwest and northeast corners. The SW corner is the first one, so the western edge of the box is always given by the first parameter, even when this makes the rectangle longer than 180 degrees.
For example, if we specify a box from Chicago to New York, we get a short box, about 13 degrees wide. But if we specify a box from New York to Chicago, we get an enormous box that begins in New York, runs east across Europe and Asia and the Pacific Ocean and finally finishes in Chicago, 167 degrees later. But what if I say that the southern corner is New York and the northern corner is, say, Miami? Shouldn't I get a box that runs south from Miami, crosses the south pole, runs up the other side and over the north pole and finishes by arriving at New York from the north? Well, I don't. I get the same box no matter which order I specify them in. That is, LatLngBounds seems to be treating the lesser latitude as the southern one, no matter which parameter it is in. Is this the intended behavior? Can anyone suggest what I might be doing wrong? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group.
