endless UNFOLDING

I really appreciate this library. Since I took several months before in my own DIY style, I now got everything I need. Thanks!

One short question, where the answer not occurs at google: How could I realize and "endless map" effect, such as provided by tilemill. I couldn't find a boolean like 'isEndless' or neither a 'setEndless()' function. Since repeating a background map is not a problem, I didn't have any clue to implement/activate it in UNFOLDING. Is there a direct way to reproduce this "standard TileMill" behavior or some backdoors via manipulation of

(int) coordinate.zoom + "/" + (int) coordinate.column + "/" + (int) coordinate.row

Thanks, Micha

Unfortunately not, at the moment. A contributor started implementing that (in the now outdated infinite_pan branch), but we never pulled it into the main distribution as the marker mechanism (and some conversion methods) were not working properly.

As an ugly work-around I can imagine using two maps, placing them aside each other, and moving the map containers accordingly. But it's probably a bit of work and not overly elegant.
