Problem with overview map size

PaulHuppé — Wed, 29 Jan 2014 14:00:01 GMT

Hi,
I am trying to add the Overview Map Widgit to a specific DIV and to give it a specific size. Part of my code looks like this:

                            overviewMapDijit = new esri.dijit.OverviewMap(
                                {map: mymap,
                                baseLayer: bLayer,
                                height: 80,
                                width: 200},
                                ovDiv);
                        }
                        overviewMapDijit.startup();

But, instead of getting an Overview Map of 200x80 pixels, I get a 400x400 pixel Overview Map. Why does it not respect the size I give it? Here is a picture showing the elements.

Any ideas?
Thanks,
Paul

Hi,
I did not get any replies yet. BTW, I am using version 3.8 of the API.

Width of the overview map dijit in screen pixels. The default value is 1/4th the width of the map, unless the HTML element referred to by srcNodeRef has a valid size.

Do you have a size set on "ovDiv"

Yes, the size is set with the following class definitions:

.gcviz-overviewMap {
  width: 245px!important;
  height: 100px!important;
}

I set the class to "gcviz-overviewMap", but it gets replaced by the class "esriOverviewMap" when the widget is put in the DIV.
