Fenix 7 series - MapView setMapVisibleArea doesn't zoom to the same map view like Fenix 6 series

Fenix 7 series - MapView setMapVisibleArea doesn't zoom to the same map view like Fenix 6 series.

Although the devices do have the same display resolution (e.g. F6X and F7X with 280x280 pixel) the setMapVisibleArea do behave different on each device series.

On F7 series devices the location/position coordinates have to be scaled nearly 100 time more to achieve the same zoom level on the map.

Please provide a common interface to avoid a device class filter in the app code.

Thanks for upcoming fix.

Hi. Do you have any pictures of what you are seeing with those devices? Also, do you have any code snippets or a personal app you are using?

to verify this bug it is realy simple

- uder the interface of MapView setMapVisibleArea and scale to a defined area on the map

- do the same scaling on a F7

- do the same scaling on a F6

=> the visible area/zoomed map view is different on both devices

the scaling is different for devices with similar screen resolution but should not.

bug is still valid, but how cares...

Hint: verify the bug with this widget/app: apps.garmin.com/.../ffcee43d-ef4f-4175-a55a-c46b6cc2918d
