Zooming in Google Maps

Hello, I find the zoom on my Mighty Mouse to be pretty sensitive when viewing Google maps. Is there a way to adjust this without affecting the global scrolling from System Preferences? I have the same question in to Google support as I type. Thanks!

Magic Mouse unintended zooming in Google Maps

Has anyone found a solution for this yet? Any settings to be done that keep the Magic Mouse from unintended zooming in Google Maps?

Multitouch zoom in google maps on a windows 7 tablet leads to a zoom of the whole browser window including tools.

Using a tablet with windows 7 and multitouch screen and the actual firefox version. If i open google maps and want to zoom the map with the zoom gesture, firefox zooms the hole browser window including the tools instead of the map. If i open another empty tab and closing it before using the zooming gesture, everything will work. Would be helpful if someone could give me a hint how to overcome these problems without always opening a new empty tab.

Well, the touch problem was first observed with Firefox Version 21. The Versions 21 to 23 offers the workaround with opening and closing a new tab. Since Version 24 also the workaround didn't work anymore and the problem, that the multitouch gestures zooms the hole browser window is still present. Maybe this makes it clear for now. So would be helpful if anybody could give me a real hint how to overcome these problem.

Google Maps zooms with Apple magic mouse

Ever since I bought the Apple magic mouse, I've noticed that whenever I use Google Maps via my desktop Apple, the map will zoom without me telling it to in street view. This is INCREDIBLY annoying when trying to view a street or move across the map. Anyway one else encounter this issue? Anyone have a solution?

Hey Dogs 'n Front- I have the same problem- I've had a Magic Mouse for years and never had the zoom problem with Google maps up until maybe a year ago?It's actually a fairly common problem that even CNET had an article about it a few years ago- sadly the problem still exists. I have a MacBook Air as well and have no problem with the trackpad scroll zoom and Google Maps, seems the Magic Mouse is just too sensitive...

How to show Google Maps and Earth in a video.

I recently videoed my grandaughter's wedding but didnt get any footage suitable for the opening sequence.
There is a good shot of the church (in country Australia) on Google Maps & Earth so I though, for a background for the opening titles, I could zoom in from outer space on the church like you can zoom with Google Maps!
Is there a way anyone can think of a way of getting the pics directly other than putting my camera in front of the computer monitor screen?
Perhaps there is an app that can capture moving computer screens?
Google zoom goes in big steps. Once I had the frames of hundreds of jpg's, is there an effect to automatically get a smooth progression so it appears to zooms smoothly?
Manully resizing and adding intermediate frames sounds so lengthy that I might not live long enought to see the final result!

There are many applications to record screen activity. Some free, some not. Most commercial one will allow you to download a trial version (although probably limited in some way (e.g. maximum recordable time, or a banner).
The two most famous (probably) are the free CamStudio and the commercial Camtasia. Note that on the CamStudio page there is a Google link to the commercial product. The links for the free CamStudio are about 2/3 of the way down the page. Even Microsoft has a free offering - Expression Encoder (although it's not too clear if the free version captures screen activity).

Google maps don't display right, part is good but about half of it says "we are sorry, but we don't have maps at this zoom level for this region." Zooming out doesn't help.

When displaying a Google map I get about four vertical strips that alternately display good and in gray bands. The gray area displays the message "we are sorry, but we don't have maps at this zoom level for this region." Zooming out doesn't get rid of the gray areas.
I've had this problem for over a year and get around it by using either MS Internet Explorer or Google Chrome which work Ok. Otherwise Firefox works fine and I use it for everything else except Google Maps.
I've tried an uninstall of FireFox and then reinstall but it didn't help. I don't remember what I was doing when this problem first showed up.

You're welcome

Images do not load in foxfire, but load ok in IE. such as the zoom bar in google maps

I'm using Firefox 9. when I goto sites such as amazon, the images do not load. I can right click on the image box and select view image and the image will be displayed in a new page. An other example is google maps. The zoom bar on the left does not display. If I move the cursor over where the zoom bar is suppose to be the cursor will change to the hand and I can left click to work the zoom. If I bring up Internet Explorer all images, etc work ok.

You can use these steps to check if images are blocked:
*Open the web page that has the images missing in a browser tab.
*Click the website favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
*Click the "More Information" button to open the "Page Info" window with the Security tab selected (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
*Go to the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
*Select the first image link and scroll down through the list with the Down arrow key.
*If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

Remove Zoom scale of Google maps in OBIEE 11g Mapviewer

Hi,
While integrating Google maps with OBIEE 11.1.1.6.0 , we are able to see two Zoom scales one for BI layer and another for Base map layer (Google Map).
When we select the former Zoom scale (BI Layer) , our views have been placed in exact countries. But when we select latter one, only base map i.e., Google map is zooming without upholding the views(Color fill,Image,Bar Graph,etc.,).
So is there any way to bring synchronization between two layers with one zoom scale.
Kindly help me to sort out this issue.
Thanks in advance!

Will require backport of a fix for mapviewer (oraclemaps.js) that has to be part of the OBIEE patchset.
Filing a bug would help the process.

Google maps Pan and zoom icon removal from a web page.

Hi,
I need to display a web page using mx:html tag which has a google map in it. Is there a way to remove the pan and zoom icons from the webpage using Flex. I tried to access the div elements of the map through Javascript methods in flex . But I find that the divs have been disabled by some javascript function.
Thanks,
Hema

Google Map default Zoom setting

Hi.. is there a way to change the default setting in the Google map so it appears at suburb level rather than as it currently does (almost state level). Thanks DC

Come here good people, gather around, fresh community solution coming up!
Eat it while it's hot!
<script>
CMS.Maps.map.setZoom(1);
</script>
Add it after the webappsmap module tag.
Adjust zoom level from 0-10 by changing the number.

Google Map photos only show at 100% zoom

Running Firefox 19.0.2
When using Google Map and selecting "photos" they do not appear unless zoom is set at 100%.
(hover over top right icon "satellite" and select "photos" from drop down menu)
I have tried safe mode and still occurs.
(I initially thought safe mode fixed it and was blaming NoSquint add-on, but it was only because zoom went back to 100% in safe mode)
Works OK in IE - I can zoom and keep photos.

I get the same problem you do. Unfortunately, Google Maps is too complicated for me to debug , so I don't have an explanation for why it's happening.

Google Maps map to move and get detailed map[zoon in], well, how zoom out?

In Google Maps built-in App, I click to map to move and get detailed map[zoon in], well, how zoom out?

2 fingers on the screen bring together to zoom out, pull away for each other to zoom in.
If in street mode touch the lower right corner.

100 percent width google map, is it possible to stop zooming in when scrolled over?

I've seen this done on other sites, but don't know if there's a work around solution in muse. It's particularly annoying if you use the mac trackpad and just trying to navigate down the page. The alternative is have a small square shaped google map, but I don't really like the look.

Thanks for the pointer.
Ill try to explain better. In the calculator i want to include a checkbox that include the sliders and combobox that are wrote below.
Also when the checkbox is selected there should be a 2nd calculation like the first one and also the output should be shown next to
the 1st calculation. But this time the calculation should respond to the sliders and combobox that are included with the checkbox.
// Current skill slide
skillmin1Sb.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE,onMinSkilChange)
// To skill slide
skillmax1Sb.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE,onMaxSkilChange)
for (var i=0;i<trainingArray.length;i++){
training1Cb.addItem({label:trainingArray[i], data:trainingBase[i]})
training1Cb.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE,changeEvent)
training1Cb.selectedIndex=0

Google Map Issue in OBIEE - Subject area not getting associated

Hi Gurus,
We are trying to integrate Google map and OBIEE via mapviewer. We have done the following already -
1. Loaded World Sample data from Navteq.
2. Configured mapviewer source and added Google map as a tile layer with the API KEY.
3. Imported one layer (e.g. M_STATES_ABRV) in OBIEE and linked it with BI subject area (tried this step with importing other layers as well)
4. Added background map.
Now , in this step when we add the layer in the map, we select M_STATES_ABRV and change zoom levels. But Once we come back to main screen after Clicking OK, we see the background map is not associated with the subject area. Hence any map view report creation with this subject area fails.
We have the tried the same theme with Oracle Maps (internal type like WORLD MAP or DEMO MAP), it works fine. only Google Map gives this issue.
This was not expected. Please suggest what we missed. We tried with cache clear, tile delete and recreation, service restart almost everything .
We looked into other threads in this community, different oracle support documents - Doc ID 1485088.1,Doc ID 1346805.1 etc and in different internet blogs - where it's easy as child's play, but we are still out of luck.
OBIEE version - 11.1.1.7.140527
Environment- windows server 2008 R2
Please suggest.
Regards,
Krish

I have found the solution: You need to *select* zoom levels for the BI Layer. When a BI Layer is added to a background map, by default no zoom layers are selected. Once a zoom level is selected, the BI Layer will save.

Safari 8 hover does not work over google map location pins

OS X 10.10.1, Safari 8, Java 8-25
I have always had little odd things not work when using safari on a large % of websites I visit, the latest issues are
no response when hovering over google map location pins, travel site calendars not opening or responding to mouse, drag and drop
show the item being dragged several inches away from the actual pointer, some links don't respond, missing items
or odd layout with print or pop ups going off the screen on some website pages, zooming in and out does not help. I have none
of these issues when using Firefox or Chrome. Been using Safari for 4 years now.

Have you tried a PRAM and an SMC reset? They're longshots, but don't take long to try.
PRAM: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
SMC: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
Have you run Apple Diagnostics from the disc(s) that shipped with the computer?
Since the problem occurs in all browsers, it still sounds like a video hardware or video RAM or maybe a software issue having to do with layers and rendering.
The map layers aren't getting rendered, or if rendered, aren't getting displayed.
Do you have any browser add-ins? Pop-up blockers?
Since you have two video chipsets, it's possible that might be related to the issue.
This non-Apple website talks about switching between chipsets on the various MacBook models so equipped, and points to a free 'donationware' program for the menubar that lets you easily switch between chipsets:

Trying to think of other software that might help pinpoint the problem, does the iPhoto Slideshow 'Shatter' template work? Working properly, it 'shatters' images into several color layers and rotates them in and out to build and deconstruct photos.
