[worldKit-dev] zoom vs file load

[Mikel Maron]

Hi Iain

worldKit will, by default, pause when it has 10 or more open requests for images. Having an excessive number of open requests can cause problems; 10 is a very very cautious limit (it should probably be higher).

The config option <maximgload> can be set to a higher number if it improves usability in your map.

Set <showload> to true, and you will be able to monitor this behavior directly.

Subject: [worldKit-dev] zoom vs file load

hello

This is more a 'user' than 'dev' question, hope that's okay on this
list.

When using the zoom controls on a worldkit map with a large data-set, I
find that zoom has to wait while non-cached files are being loaded. Is
there any way to give precedence to the zoom control?

I'm using firefox on Linux, and sorry I haven't checked if the problem
exists in Windows yet. When the map is configured to zoom in on a region
using click and drag, the problem is side-stepped to a degree because
there is a quick jump to the desired scale - but the problem (or
feature) exists here too. The map i'm testing is at:

cheers, Iain
