When you intialize your map, pass it a "restrictedExtent" so that it will only show your area of interest. See this example : http://openlayers.org/dev/examples/restricted-extent.html Also, it should be possible to use one of your vector layers as a basemap, rather than creating a layer that does

Well, I'm only displaying blank tiles on that layer, but there are a number of items in the vector layer aboveā€”I would like to restrict the viewport to the region containing these items. M. On Mon, Jul 19, 2010 at 6:04 PM, Lennox Antoine wrote: > What effect are you referring to? Why do you c

What effect are you referring to? Why do you care to restrict the bounds of the layer if you're just displaying blank tiles? Lennox On Mon, Jul 19, 2010 at 5:19 PM, Mike Purvis wrote: > In both those cases I get global coordinates, though, don't I? > > My Image layer is like so: > > baseLay

In both those cases I get global coordinates, though, don't I? My Image layer is like so: baseLayer = new OpenLayers.Layer.Image( "Image", "/static/img/gridmap.png", new OpenLayers.Bounds(0, 0, 3, 3), new OpenLayers.Size(600, 600), {}); It's a 600x600 image, and the coordinat

You could just use a tile layer that always returns a blank image. Something like this should work : var vzl = new OpenLayers.Layer.TMS( 'test', 'http://google.com', { getURL: function(bounds){ return " http://yourserver.com/blank.gif";; }, buffer: 0

2010-07-19 Thread Mike Purvis
Hi, I currently have a map that uses an OpenLayers.Layer.Image as the baselayer, and then draws a bunch of vectors on top of it. However, the image in question is simple enough that I'd really rather just do away with it and use vectors for my background as well. What's the best way to do this? I
