--- layout: example.html title: Advanced View Positioning shortdesc: This example demonstrates how a map's view can be adjusted so a geometry or coordinate is positioned at a specific pixel location. docs: > This example demonstrates how a map's view can be adjusted so a geometry or coordinate is positioned at a specific pixel location. The map above has top, right, bottom, and left padding applied inside the viewport. The view's `fit` method is used to fit a geometry in the view with the same padding. The view's `centerOn` method is used to position a coordinate (Lausanne) at a specific pixel location (the center of the black box).

Use `Alt+Shift+Drag` to rotate the map.

Note: This example does not shift the view center. So the zoom controls and rotating the map will still use the center of the viewport as anchor. To shift the whole view based on a padding, use the `padding` option on the view, as shown in the view-padding.html example.
