autoCenterAndZoom doesn't work well with world-wide points

[CIPowell]

When there are markers above and below the equator and left and right of the meridian, auto Center and zoom seems to ignore some of them and zoom in on one point;

In this case, with markers in Europe only it works fine, but with markers in Europe, Africa and Oceana (Australia, New Zealand and Singapore) the map zooms in on Southern Africa.

Using googlemapsv3.

set up code

            map = new mxn.Mapstraction("map", "googlev3");
    map.setCenterAndZoom(new mxn.LatLonPoint(0,0), 1);
    map.addLargeControls();
    map.addMapTypeControls();

markers are added using addMarkerWithData.

Hi, tested here and it works without any problem :

Could you give us the url of your problematic page ?

Here's an example page with some test data.

Ok i got it, there is a bug in autoCenterAndZoom(), i'll make a pull request for the patch.

So, i've pushed a branch for that in my repo. I've started bb15c44 refactoring autocenterandzoom code by using bounds and bounds.extends to avoid redundancy code in mxn.core.

The bug is still there but now we know that we have to fix bounds.extend()...

So, i've tested many thing during all day and i can't get it working well for now. I've looked at opelayers code and they do the same thing that mapstration, so your data should not work with a native openlayers map. I've also tried your data on a native google maps v3 and it works if i use map.fitBounds(bounds); to autocenterandzoom. The problem is that i can't find (and not sure that it's possible) the source code of google maps api...

Stay tuned ++

Can we close this issue now, or is there more to do?
