The Overview Map is causing you problems. (I don't really know why.) If
you drop the OverviewMap out, the ScaleLine should work.

That won't help you here.

That probably means that your iconOffset isn't actually what you mean
for it to be. As far as I can tell, the anchor point of the markers
isn't changing, so I think you're just suffering from an iconOffset that
isn't actually what you mean.
