[Gwt-openlayers-users] Google Maps Issue

[AbdElhadi <abd...@gm...>]

Hi all,

I was able to get a Google map to show up but not without many issues. All I
had to do is to add the google maps api script call to the host html and add
the following to my code:

//      create a google maps layer
        GoogleOptions ggLayerOptions = new GoogleOptions();
        ggLayerOptions.setSphericalMercator(false);
        Google ggLayer = new Google("Google Base", ggLayerOptions);
        myMap.addLayer(ggLayer);

The issues I am getting are as follow:

1- First, on page load, the GoogleMaps layer seems to cover a small area of
the map extent until there is a resize event then it takes the same
dimensions as the MapWidget.
2- GM doesn't respond to pan/move events when you use
setSphericalMercator(true). Also, why is there such a function since all
Google Maps are in Spherical Mercator?

I am still playing with this and will report on more as I find them.

Thanks,
