[OpenLayers-Dev] Re: Reduce OpenLayers.Layer.Grid's buffer throughout

[Andreas Hocevar]

Hi,

I don't know what the problem is. It is so simple to achieve what you want.

I assume you want to change the default buffer from 2 to 1. Just do as others have suggested already:

OpenLayers.Layer.WMS.prototype.buffer = 1;

This can be done anywhere in your code, preferably in a script tag right after the script tag that references OpenLayers.js. It will affect all layers, except those where a different buffer is set upon instantiation. 

Regards,
Andreas.
