Setting max zoom level in google maps android api v2

Question

I\'m currently working on developing apps by using Google maps android API v2. My code is as follows. Suppose map has several markers and zoom up to show all markers in disp

Answer 1

This is from the API reference for the include(position) you're using:

"Includes this point for building of the bounds. The bounds will be extended in a minimum way to include this point. More precisely, it will consider extending the bounds both in the eastward and westward directions (one of which may wrap around the world) and choose the smaller of the two. In the case that both directions result in a LatLngBounds of the same size, this will extend it in the eastward direction."

The map will zoom out until it can show all of the markers you're adding in your for loop.

If you want to only zoom out to 17 and still show markers, animate to zoom level 17 first, then get the bounds for it, and then add your markers.

@Override
public void onCameraChange(CameraPosition camPos) {

    if (camPos.zoom < 17 && mCurrentLoc != null) {
        // set zoom 17 and disable zoom gestures so map can't be zoomed out
        // all the way
        mMap.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(position,17));
        mMap.getUiSettings().setZoomGesturesEnabled(false);
    }
    if (camPos.zoom >= 17) {
        mMap.getUiSettings().setZoomGesturesEnabled(true);
    }

    LatLngBounds visibleBounds =  mMap.getProjection().getVisibleRegion().latLngBounds;

//add the markers
