Hi Tim,
The RangeControl isn't working because the longitude values
in your map lie in the range (-180, +180), and the RangeControl
narrows this to (-180, -60). With no RangeControl, VisAD's
smart longitude display logic wraps the values in (+120, +180)
to (-240, -180). One work around is to take the values out
of the UnionSet return by BaseMapAdapter.getData(), wrap the
longitudes from (-180, +180) to (-240, +120), use them to
construct a new UnionSet, and display it. Another approach
is to BaseMapAdapter's capability to select ranges, and
return your (-240, -60) range as the disjoint union of
ranges (+120, +180) and (-180, -60). This is actually
pretty easy, and I've attached a modified version of your
MapTest.java.
Cheers,
Bill
