Multimap Open API V1.2 Example

Pan Limiting Example

Although the ability to drag maps with a mouse is a core feature of the Multimap Open API, you may wish to disable this feature in your own applications. This example gives a demonstration of how you can use the Multimap Open API to limit the areas to which a user can pan.

What You Should See

If you view this in your browser you should see a Multimap draggable map centered on Fleet Street, London, Great Britain, at zoom factor 10. The map viewer has been set up to limit all types of panning to a rectangular area around the M25 motorway which encircles London. Regardless of which method is used to pan the map, the map does not allow the user to pan far outside the M25.
