[OpenLayers-Users] Min Zoom Level

[Warren Vick]

Ah, I see.

So, the final part of my question is... what are the scale values for
the standard zoom levels in OL? Is it the same as
Min/MaxScaleDenominator when rendering TMS tiles?

Regards,
Warren

Hi Warren,

if you add the PanZoomBar

map.addControl(new OpenLayers.Control.PanZoomBar());

you will have as much zoomlevels as you have defined in the
scales-section. In the previous example there will be 7 zoom-levels.

Matthias
