We just released a significant feature-full update to amMap. [Download]
Here’s a scoop of what’s new.
Features
- Auto zoom for areas. Either use <zoom><auto_zoom> in settings or "auto_zoom" property of <area> in data.
- Additional option for <balloon><arrow>: "none"
- New setting <export_as_image><background_color>. Sets the background color for the exported images.
- Ability to automatically shift overlapping movies. Use <movie><overlap_shift_x> and <overlap_shift_y> to control by how much pixels the each subsequent movie with the exact same coordinates are shifted on the map.
- Show amMap version in developer mode.
- amRegisterRollout callback function.
- amMap now supports "wrapped" longitude. This means that it is now possible to have Mercator-calibrated maps that span -180/180 longitude allowing for example Pacific-centered maps. To enable this just add long_wrap="true" into <map> header.
Bug fixes
- The linked areas to selected area are reverted back to selected color rather then default color.
- A workaround fix for the bug in latest Flash Player version. Please avoid adding "width" attribute to <label> positioned by lat/long.
- Double "Error loading file" message.
- Fixed weird behavior in amtimeline.swf.
- Fixed a bug in value color calculation.
