[Google Maps API v3] Re: Refresh Base Map Type Tiles
The only thing i can see that would work would be to use a solution similar to that which i posted in post #4 of the thread i linked to previously: https://groups.google.com/group/google-maps-js-api-v3/browse_frm/thread/25a3f290cdf0fa5e/34d32ac679be539c?hl=en&lnk=gst Add a bogus parameter to your tile URLs and when you want to refresh the tiles just remove and then re-add the tile layer. A time based bogus parameter will ensure new tiles are requested instead of cached tiles being reused. That will not be visually smooth but should work. :-( Can you not implement your tile layer as a BaseMapType? http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/maptypes.html#BaseMapTypes "Map types which you construct in this manner may either stand alone or be combined with other map types as overlays. Standalone map types are known as base map types." Martin. On Jan 20, 7:40 am, NoRyb wrote: > Hello Martin > > Thank you for the answer.

[Google Maps API v3] Re: Refresh Base Map Type Tiles
Hello Martin Thank you for the answer. Unfortunately this does not help me as I don't have a list of tiles. I extended the ImageMapType so I can use it as Base Map instead of overlay map. There I only get the getTileUrl-Callback which does not have a pointer to the tile (only the URL). Is there a way to get to the Tiles over the map object so I can iterate through them? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group.
