Methods

bindTo(key, target, opt_targetKey){ol.ObjectAccessor} inherited experimental

The bindTo method allows you to set up a two-way binding between a source and target object. The method returns an ol.ObjectAccessor with a transform method that lets you transform values on the way from the source to the target and on the way back.

For example, if you had two map views (sourceView and targetView) and you wanted the target view to have double the resolution of the source view, you could transform the resolution on the way to and from the target with the following:

sourceView.bindTo('resolution', targetView)
  .transform(
    function(sourceResolution) {
      // from sourceView.resolution to targetView.resolution
      return 2 * sourceResolution;
    },
    function(targetResolution) {
      // from targetView.resolution to sourceView.resolution
      return targetResolution / 2;
    }
  );

getVisible(){boolean|undefined} inherited experimental

notify(key) inherited experimental

Notify all observers of a change on this property. This notifies both objects that are bound to the object's property as well as the object that it is bound to.

Name Type Description
key string

Key name.

on(type, listener, opt_this){goog.events.Key} inherited experimental

Listen for a certain type of event.

Name Type Description
type string | Array.<string>

The event type or array of event types.

listener function

The listener function.

this Object optional

The object to use as this in listener.

Returns:
Unique key for the listener.

once(type, listener, opt_this){goog.events.Key} inherited experimental

Listen once for a certain type of event.

Name Type Description
type string | Array.<string>

The event type or array of event types.

listener function

The listener function.

this Object optional

The object to use as this in listener.

Returns:
Unique key for the listener.

set(key, value) inherited experimental

Sets a value.

Name Type Description
key string

Key name.

value *

Value.

setBrightness(brightness) inherited experimental

Adjust the layer brightness. A value of -1 will render the layer completely black. A value of 0 will leave the brightness unchanged. A value of 1 will render the layer completely white. Other values are linear multipliers on the effect (values are clamped between -1 and 1).

The filter effects draft [1] says the brightness function is supposed to render 0 black, 1 unchanged, and all other values as a linear multiplier.

The current WebKit implementation clamps values between -1 (black) and 1 (white) [2]. There is a bug open to change the filter effect spec [3].

TODO: revisit this if the spec is still unmodified before we release

Name Type Description
brightness number | undefined optional

The brightness of the layer.

setContrast(contrast) inherited experimental

Adjust the layer contrast. A value of 0 will render the layer completely grey. A value of 1 will leave the contrast unchanged. Other values are linear multipliers on the effect (and values over 1 are permitted).

Name Type Description
contrast number | undefined optional

The contrast of the layer.

setHue(hue) inherited experimental

Apply a hue-rotation to the layer. A value of 0 will leave the hue unchanged. Other values are radians around the color circle.

Name Type Description

The minimum resolution of the layer.

setOpacity(opacity) inherited experimental

Name Type Description
opacity number | undefined optional

The opacity of the layer.

setSaturation(saturation) inherited experimental

Adjust layer saturation. A value of 0 will render the layer completely unsaturated. A value of 1 will leave the saturation unchanged. Other values are linear multipliers of the effect (and values over 1 are permitted).

Name Type Description
saturation number | undefined optional

The saturation of the layer.

setStyle(style) experimental

Set the style for features. This can be a single style object, an array of styles, or a function that takes a feature and resolution and returns an array of styles.

listener function

The listener function.

this Object optional

The object to use as this in listener.

unbind(key) inherited experimental
