### Constants

### MIN_ZOOM_LEVEL

{Integer} 0

### MAX_ZOOM_LEVEL

{Integer} 21

### RESOLUTIONS

{Array(Float)} Hardcode these resolutions so that they are more closely tied with the standard wms projection

### Properties

### type

{GMapType}

### wrapDateLine

{Boolean} Allow user to pan forever east/west. Default is true. Setting this to false only restricts panning if sphericalMercator is true.

### sphericalMercator

{Boolean} Should the map act as a mercator-projected map? This will cause all interactions with the map to be in the actual map projection, which allows support for vector drawing, overlaying other maps, etc.

### Constructor

### OpenLayers.Layer.Google

#### Parameters

name | {String} A name for the layer.
options | {Object} An optional object whose properties will be set on the layer.

### Functions

### setVisibility

> setVisibility: function( | visible | )

Set the visibility flag for the layer and hide/show & redraw accordingly. Fire event unless otherwise specified

Note that visibility is no longer simply whether or not the layer’s style.display is set to “block”. Now we store a ‘visibility’ state property on the layer class, this allows us to remember whether or not we desire for a layer to be visible. In the case where the map’s resolution is out of the layer’s range, this desire may be subverted.

#### Parameters

visible | {Boolean} Display the layer (if in range)

### display

> display: function( | visible | )

Hide or show the Layer

#### Parameters

visible | {Boolean}

### setOpacity

> setOpacity: function( | opacity | )

Sets the opacity for the entire layer (all images)

#### Parameters

opacity | {Float}

### destroy

> destroy: function()

Clean up this layer.

### removeMap

> removeMap: function( | map | )

On being removed from the map, also remove termsOfUse and poweredBy divs

#### Parameters

{OpenLayers.Bounds} An OpenLayers.Bounds, translated from the passed-in MapObject Bounds. Returns null if null value is passed in.

### getWarningHTML

> getWarningHTML:function()

#### Returns

{String} String with information on why layer is broken, how to get it working.

### getMapObjectCenter

> getMapObjectCenter: function()

#### Returns

{Object} The mapObject’s current center in Map Object format

### getMapObjectZoom

> getMapObjectZoom: function()

#### Returns

{Integer} The mapObject’s current zoom, in Map Object format

### getLongitudeFromMapObjectLonLat

#### Parameters

moLonLat | {Object} MapObject LonLat format

#### Returns

{Float} Longitude of the given MapObject LonLat

### getLatitudeFromMapObjectLonLat

> getLatitudeFromMapObjectLonLat: function( | moLonLat | )

#### Parameters

moLonLat | {Object} MapObject LonLat format

#### Returns

{Float} Latitude of the given MapObject LonLat

### getXFromMapObjectPixel

> getXFromMapObjectPixel: function( | moPixel | )

#### Parameters

moPixel | {Object} MapObject Pixel format

#### Returns

{Integer} X value of the MapObject Pixel

### getYFromMapObjectPixel

> getYFromMapObjectPixel: function( | moPixel | )

#### Parameters

moPixel | {Object} MapObject Pixel format

#### Returns

{Integer} Y value of the MapObject Pixel

A mixin for layers that wraps up the pieces neccesary to have a coordinate conversion for working with commercial APIs which use a spherical mercator projection.
Base class for 3rd party layers, providing a DOM element which isolates the 3rd-party layer from mouse events.
Some Layers will already have established zoom levels (like google or ve).
{Boolean} Should the map act as a mercator-projected map?
Instances of OpenLayers.Map are interactive maps embedded in a web page.
Instances of this class represent bounding boxes.
Mixin providing functionality specific to the Google Maps API v3.
