Hi Ted,

for what I know there is the so called 'Tile slider' for tile services. 
But the scales defined for that one come from (I think the first) tile 
service that you call. You can off course create your own tile-service, 
add it as a background, and in that way have YOUR predefined scales. But 
that is probably a little over the top :-)


I am not aware 'predefined scales' of other data formats of services, 
but please point me to it if I'm wrong..


Otherwise, maybe make it a feature request (after searching if it maybe 
already is ;-) )...


Regards,

Richard Duivenvoorde

Hey Ted ,

Yep there is a patch ready in the waiting to add this exact thing.
Once 1.8 is out it will be added.

Ah, thanks for pointing... had not seen it yet.

Anyway, in 'my world' the tile-services are becoming pretty important.

It would be great if the dropdown could also be filled based on the 
scales defined by the tile scale slider. Here in NL we have a 'national 
tiling grid scheme' which does have scales near 'normal scales' but are 
off a little because of the fact that we want a factor of two between 
all scales...


But off course we could always do this by hand...
