Hi,

We're trying to improve the user experience when zooming and panning ArcGIS basemaps.

The default behavior of basemaps allows the user to overzoom the tiles which results in the following:

This is not a great user experience.

We can improve on this a little bit by implementing a minZoom: 2 map constraint which results in the following:

This is a better user experience, but its still not great, as there is white space in the map and this approach will have different results at different screen resolutions.

I know the older JS API / basemap implementations would repeat tiles in the second figure above.  This doesn't seem possible with the current API/implementation.  

Have others encountered and found solutions to this that provide a better user experience?  

Many thanks,

Greg
