Re: New layouts not playing nicely with Maps

Hi Jeff,

I played around with this and got it to work with these panels:

private MapWidget map;

// GWT module entry point method.

public void onModuleLoad() {

Maps.loadMapsApi(null, null, false, new Runnable() {

public void run() {

LatLng cawkerCity = LatLng.newInstance(39.509, -98.434);

// Open a map centered on Cawker City, KS USA

map = new MapWidget(cawkerCity, 2);

map.setSize("100%", "100%");

map.setUIToDefault();

DockLayoutPanel dock = new DockLayoutPanel(Unit.PX);

dock.setHeight("600px");

dock.setWidth("400px");

SplitLayoutPanel split = new SplitLayoutPanel();

dock.add(split);

split.addNorth(map, 500);

split.setWidth("100%");

split.setHeight("100%");

// Add the map to the HTML host page

RootPanel.get().add(dock);

new Timer() {

public void run() {

map.checkResizeAndCenter();

}

}.schedule(1);

}

});

}

Does anyone have the GWT Google maps working inside the new Layout
panels?

My page is basically a DockLayoutPanel whose main element is a
SplitLayoutPanel whose main element is a MapWidget.  The MapWidget is
set to 100% size.

On startup, the map tiles are sized to a very small part of the area,
although the grey background does seem to cover the entire space:

If I resize the browser window, the map quickly covers the whole area
and starts to work normally.

I've tried calling MapWidget.checkResize() and the LayoutPanel's
forceLayout() methods but neither have an effect.  Any idea what I'm
doing wrong?

The code is super-simple:

       SplitLayoutPanel split = new SplitLayoutPanel();
       this.add(split);  // to the DockLayoutPanel

       split.addWest(new HTML("<p>blah</p>"), 200);

       LatLng cawkerCity = LatLng.newInstance(39.509, -98.434);
       MapWidget map = new MapWidget(cawkerCity, 4);
       map.setSize("100%", "100%");
       split.add(map);

Thanks,
Jeff
