Advanced View Positioning

(best fit).
(with min resolution),

This example demonstrates how a map's view can be adjusted so a geometry or coordinate is positioned at a specific pixel location.

This example demonstrates how a map's view can be adjusted so a geometry or coordinate is positioned at a specific pixel location. The map above has top, right, bottom, and left padding applied inside the viewport. The view's fit method is used to fit a geometry in the view with the same padding. The view's centerOn method is used to position a coordinate (Lausanne) at a specific pixel location (the center of the black box).

Use Alt+Shift+Drag to rotate the map.
