Overview

Geo Scale controls parameters that define numerical parameters that primarily affect how Map Grid and Map_Axes are displayed. Map scale is represented by anychart.scales.Geo class.

Tick intervals

You can control major and minor tick intervals using interval() of xMinorTicks(), yMinorTicks(), xTicks() and yTicks():

var scale = map.scale();
scale.xTicks.interval(10);
scale.yTicks.interval(10);
scale.xMinorTicks.interval(2);
scale.yMinorTicks.interval(2);

Minimum and Maximum

Controlling minimum and maximum for scales allows you to control the area of the map displayed, it is done using maximumX(), maximumY(), minimumX() and minimumY() methods:

var mapScale = map.scale();

// set scale minimums and maximums
mapScale.minimumX(110);
mapScale.maximumX(150);
mapScale.minimumY(-50);
mapScale.maximumY(-10);

Precision

You can control map scale precision using the precision() method, it allows to change both X- and Y-precision if needed.
