What I mean is like: I expected the different zooms to be specifically normalized so that at the most zoomed-out, 80px = 800mi, then 80px = 500mi, then 80px = 3

What I mean is like: I expected the different zooms to be specifically normalized so that at the most zoomed-out, 80px = 800mi, then 80px = 500mi, then 80px = 300mi, then 80px = 200mi, then 80px = 50mi, etc. But instead it was like.... 90px = 800mi, and 80px = 500mi, and 60px = 50mi, etc. So not only do you have to account for the changed scale, but you also have to measure the scale ruler at every increment.
- LeafItAlone 3y agoAh, you want more distinct zoom levels. On my mobile device, for example, the ruler for, for example, 1,000 miles can be different lengths depending on if I am slightly more or less zoomed in (via pinch). Which might be related to the choice of projection, because even just moving around the map changes the ruler length for me, for the same labeled distance.
- RheingoldRiver 3y agoHmm for me I did have very distinct zoom levels here; I was only able to scroll in one tick or out one tick with my mouse wheel, it wasn't freeform. That's why I expected these quanta with a constant 80px-long ruler. Maybe on mobile it was a different experience.
