What is the constraint on my scale level

JohnWass — Wed, 23 Apr 2014 13:36:02 GMT

Greetings,

Why is my max scale bound to such a high number when I upload a raster in the "Dynamic workspaces: raster" sample? In other words, I want to zoom in further but the map does not respond to requests to do so.

Obviously the reason for the question is that I experience this behavior in my applications as well. I have not yet reverted back to test, but I do not remember this being the case @ 10.1. Thats just a guess though.

64-bit Linux; Runtime 10.2

Thanks
john

It's actually just that the sample is using a tpk (.tpk file, tile package on disk) as a basemap. The tpk has only the first few top levels of tiles so as to not take up too much space on disk, and so the map won't let you zoom into beyond the largest scale level. Replace the ArcGISLocalTiledLayer in the sample with an ArcGISTiledMapServiceLayer for example, and you should no longer see these scale constraints.
