| SETTING / VALUES | EXPLANATION | |
| | |
| wrapDateLine true map will be wrapped (default) false map won't be wrapped | "Wraps" the background map (like GoogleMaps or BingMaps) along the date line - that means the map will be repeated east- and westwards so the map can be panned endlessly. Even without a background map, every layer (with Markers, Lines or Polygons on it) will be repeated too, but the items are shown only once at a time, depending on which map/"site" the bigger part of each item is positioned. This feature is very helpful for orientation, when you work in a area near the date line. For example to switch from Canada to Japan you only have to pan slightly to the left instead of "crossing" whole Europe until you get to the "other end" on the right. Google Maps has the special feature to wrap the map, even if wrapDateLine is false. However the extensions aren't dynamic and no item (Marker, Polygon,...) would be repeated. Moreover the map can only be panned sidewards to a certain extent. | The green line in the screenshots below symbolizes the date line. wrapDateLine = true Asia and Australia are repeated on the left. wrapDateLine = false Beyond the map only the white background is shown.  |
| opacity number background map opacity in percent (default is 50) | Set opacity of background map layer (tile maps) in percent: 0% - colors/images are covering 100% - completely transparent Opacity of background itself is set inside APPEARANCE SETTINGS. | |

| GoogleMaps, Here, BingMaps, MapBox | The part "variables" in the screenshot is a standard declaration for tile server images ({z} stands for the zoom level folder, {x} for the folder with the x-axis values and {y} for the y-axis files). Please note, that the tiles have to be saved as .jpg files. Example: {"local": true, "url": "MyTileFolder\${z}\${x}\${y}.jpg"} Attention with the backslash: URL paths go with a regular slash / local paths are separated with a backslash ** . url - tile server In case of using a tile server just replace the whole part between the quotation marks ("tiles${z}${x}${y}.jpg") with your tile server URL. Usually the tile server providers supply several URLs - you can list them all here (including the part with the feature local) separated with a comma. Example using one URL: {"local": false, "url": "http://a.tile.opencyclemap.org/cycle/${z}/${x}/${y}.png"} Example using mulitple URLs: {"local": false, "url": "http://otile1.mqcdn.com/tiles/1.0.0/map/${z}/${x}/${y}.png"}, {"local": false, "url": "http://otile2.mqcdn.com/tiles/1.0.0/map/${z}/${x}/${y}.png"}, {"local": false, "url": "http://otile3.mqcdn.com/tiles/1.0.0/map/${z}/${x}/${y}.png"} |  |
