Zoom on web maps with Jolla browser? [answered]
asked 2015-02-23 12:42:36 +0200
Has anyone encountered problem when pinch zooming on map services like google maps or here maps?
At least my experience currently is that attempt to zoom out causes the zooming really out and re-zooming back in makes the situation even worse.
The only way to get initial zoom is to reload the whole webpage.
This happens on all web pages, where the map services are included as embedded objects or also on the dedicated maps sites.
I am wondering, if it is the browser issue or UI issue or touch screen issue reltated to pinch gesture to zoom in or out on map?
Edit 3th of March 2015 Update 11 did not bring fix for this problem.
Edit 7th of July 2015 Still not fixed in SailfishOS 1.1.6.27
Edit 2nd of November 2015 Zooming on web maps seems to work again with SF updates 1.1.9.xx and lates 2.0.0.10 - Closing question as solved
Oh yes, that's the one I wanted to report, but forget about it each time I'm home. Happening to me since the very beginning, so irritating! I am relying only on the little + and - signs to zoom in/out.

I wonder what is the difference of the pinch gesture between us?
