Zoom in on SSRS 2008 R2 Spatial Map

Question

Is it possible to zoom in on a map which has already been generated in SSRS 2008 R2?

I can see how to set the zoom level at design time, but not at run time

Thanks in advance,

Jim

What you can do is set the zoom level to a parameter with values of different zoom levels. It doesn't let you zoom anywhere on the map, but it typically will zoom in on the point. Personally, I have been a little disappointed with the lack of interactivity with the mapping in SSRS 2008.

how can you add zoom level to parameters? – LIX Jul 26 '11 at 11:56

You can modify the zoom level by right clicking the map and selecting "Viewport Properties" --> Select "Center and Zoom" on the left and for the "Zoom level (percent):" it defaults to "Auto", you can set this value to a parameter. In my test example, I simply added a scale of available values ( Lowest = 100, Low = 500 ...Street View 40000). Not as user friendly as what we are usually used to in web maps, but does provide some interactivity. – mr.theTrain Jul 26 '11 at 15:01
how can you do it during run time? I want to set zoom level as a filter – LIX Jul 27 '11 at 03:24
Create a parameter (@Zoom) Set the value of the Zoom Level (found in previous comment) to @Zoom. So at run time, the end user can enter (or select) a zoom level. – mr.theTrain Jul 28 '11 at 22:17

It looks like this is a "no".

All the examples I've seen talk about links on the map (e.g. on a point) which when clicked basically show another report, which happens to be at a different zoom level.

create a Parameter @Zoom,
then you can replace value of tag

<MapCustomView>
        <CenterX>34.6386680603027</CenterX>
        <CenterY>42.2658576965332</CenterY>
        <Zoom>229.739669799805</Zoom>

with =Parameters!Zoom.Value in code file.

<MapCustomView>
        <CenterX>34.6386680603027</CenterX>
        <CenterY>42.2658576965332</CenterY>
        <Zoom>=Parameters!Zoom.Value</Zoom>

now use a filter to enter the amount manually.
