Class nokia.maps.map.Spatial

Class Summary

This is an abstract base class for all objects that have a geo-spatial dimension.

Properties This interface defines the properties (keys) that can be passed to the constructor of all classes derived from nokia.maps.map.Spatial.
Method Summary
addListener (type, callback, useCapture) : Object This method registers an event listener.
addListenerNS (namespaceURI, type, callback, useCapture) : nokia.maps.dom.EventTarget This method registers an event listener for events originating from a specific namespace.
addListeners (obj) Nonstandard method to register multiple event listeners.
addObserver (key, callback, [context]) : nokia.maps.util.OObject This method registers an observer for the property named by the caller.
click (evt) This event is fired after a mousedown/mouseup sequence at the same target has occurred.
dblclick (evt) This event is fired after two click events have been fired within a certain time period.
dbltap (evt) This event is fired after a two tap events have been fired in a certain amount of time.
destroy () This method cleans the given instance of Object and removes it from all Displays to which it is connected.
disableDrag () : nokia.maps.dom.EventTarget This method disables dragging of this event target, causing this event target not to receive dragstart, drag and dragend events.
disableUserSelect () : nokia.maps.dom.EventTarget This method prevents user selection of text and elements within the event target and prevents the magnifier on the iPhone or other similar mobile devices.
dispatch (evt) : Boolean This method dispatches an event.
drag (evt) This event is fired at the target object of the dragstart event while a drag operation is in propgress.
dragend (evt) This event is fired at the end of a drag operation at the object that was dragged (the target of the dragstart event).
dragenter (evt) This event is fired at an object if the mouse/finger is moved into the visible area of the object during a drag operation.
dragleave (evt) This event is fired at the current drop target if the the mouse/finger leaves the visible area of the target.
dragover (evt) This event is fired at the current drop target while the mouse/finger is on/above the drop target.
dragstart (evt) This event is fired at an object that has the property draggable set to true and after a mousedown/touch has occurred and the mouse/finger was moved at least three pixels.
drop (evt) This event is fired at the current drop target if the mouse button or finger is released on/above it, which means that the dragenter event and the dragover events were canceled, so their preventDefault methods were called and the allowedEffect property matches the dropEffect property.
enableDrag () : nokia.maps.dom.EventTarget This method enables dragging of this event target and disables the user selection, allowing this event target to receive dragstart, drag and dragend events.
enableUserSelect () : nokia.maps.dom.EventTarget This method allows the user to select text and elements within the event target and allows the magnifier on the iPhone or other similar mobile devices.
gesturechange (evt) This high-level event is fired whenever either of the two finger making a gesture is moved, changing the properties of the gesture.
gestureend (evt) This high-level event is fired as soon as the gesture ends, for example because one of the two fingers touching the touch screen are lifted.
gesturestart (evt) This high-level event is fired when two or more fingers touch the touch screen and are used to make a "gesture".
get (key) : Variant This method retrieves the value of the property with the name provided by the caller.
abstract getBoundingBox () : nokia.maps.geo.BoundingBox This method calculates the outer geographic bounding box of the given object.
getDisplays () : nokia.maps.map.Display[] This method retrieves the instances of map.Display to which the given object is connected.
getParent (display) : nokia.maps.map.Object This method retrieves the parent of the given map object.
hitTest (pageX, pageY) : Boolean This method tests if the given x/y position relative to the document lies within the outer bounding box of the node corresponding to the given EventTarget object.
insertListener (type, callback, useCapture) : Object This method registers an event listener as the first listener in the listener chain.
insertListenerNS (namespaceURI, type, callback, useCapture) : nokia.maps.dom.EventTarget This method registers an event listener for events originating from a specific namespace as the first in the listener chain.
isAdded (display) This method checks if the given map object has been added to the instance of map.Display specified by the caller.
isVisible (display) This method checks if the given map object is visible.
longpress (evt) This event is fired after a mouse button has been pressed for a certain amount of time without starting a drag.
longpress (evt) This event is fired after a finger has been pressed against the screen for a certain amount of time without starting a drag or gesture.
mousedown (evt) This event is fired if a mouse button has been pressed.
mouseenter (evt) This event is fired if the mouse cursor enters the visible area of a node -- it is fired at the node that the mouse has entered.
mouseleave (evt) This event is fired when the mouse cursor leaves the physical area of a node -- it is fired at the node the mouse has left.
mousemove (evt) This event is fired if the mouse is moved.
mouseout (evt) This event is fired if the mouse cursor leaves the visible area of a node -- the event is fired at the node that the mouse has left.
mouseover (evt) This event is fired when the mouse cursor enters the visible area of a node -- the event is fired at the node that is entered.
mouseup (evt) This event is fired if a mouse button has been released.
mousewheel (evt) This event is fired if the mousewheel is moved.
remove (key) : nokia.maps.util.OObject This method removes the property with the name provided by the caller.
removeListener (type, listener, useCapture) : nokia.maps.dom.EventTarget This method removes an event listener.
removeListenerNS (namespaceURI, type, listener, useCapture) : nokia.maps.dom.EventTarget This method removes an event listener for events originating from a specific namespace.
removeObserver (key, callback, context) : nokia.maps.util.OObject This method removes the observer for the property named by the caller.
set (nameOrObject, [value, [force]]) : nokia.maps.util.OObject This method sets property values, using the property names and values supplied by the caller.
tap (evt) This event is fired after a touchstart and touchend has occurred at the same target and only if neither of the touchstart nor the touchend event has been canceled and no gesture was started in between.
touchend (evt) This event is fired when a finger is lifted from a touch screen.
touchmove (evt) This event is fired when a finger touches and moves on a touch screen.
touchstart (evt) This event is fired when a finger is touches a touch screen.
Field Summary
Number CHANGE_SPATIAL This property represents the invalidation type for spatial changes.
Number CHANGE_VISUAL This property represents the invalidation type for visual changes.
Number CHANGE_ZINDEX This property represents the invalidation type for z-index changes.
Boolean draggable This property indicates if the given event target is draggable and may receive a dragstart, drag and dragend events (true); false otherwise.
Object eventListener This property is either undefined or holds a hash table that, for every event type, contains an array with the elements: [(listener, useCapture, namespaceURI)(listener, useCapture, namespaceURI)(…)]
Boolean isEventTarget This property indicates whether an object implements the nokia.maps.dom.EventTarget interface (true) or not (false).
nokia.maps.dom.EventTarget parentNode This property holds a reference to the parent node of the event target (if set).
Object parentNodes If this property is set it holds a hash table that contains the "namespaceURI" as key and the corresponding value is the parent node of the given event target.
Number simplify The value of this property is specified as a number of pixels and indicates if and how much the rendering result is to be simplified.
Boolean visibility This property is a flag that determines the visibility of the given Object instance.
Number zIndex This property represents the z-index relative to the container.
Field Detail
Number simplify
The value of this property is specified as a number of pixels and indicates if and how much the rendering result is to be simplified. If the value is 0, no simplification is applied. Otherwise, the complexity of the rendering result is reduced so that points within a distance smaller than the number of pixels indicated by this property are ignored.
Default Value:
3
