How to change zoom levels in Google Map?

I am currently using a Google map scatter chart, but my data points are plotting to a different zoom level.

The red should completly overlay the US. How do I change the zoom levels so this is correct?

Well I just got it working. apparently it wants to be set to size 400, even if the actuall chart is not that size.

I changed the def_map_size to 400 and map_size_x and map_size_y to 400 and it is working fine.

I would have thought it would need the map sizes set to the actuall size of the chart but I guess not. Thank you everyone for your help.

Hi,

there is probably an error in your axes formulas. Can you post some example?

X Axis:

Static Min: =(256*pow(2,($(var_zoom)-1)))+( var_mid_long  *((256*pow(2,$(var_zoom)))/360)) -round(map_size_x/2)

Static Max:  =((256*pow(2,($(var_zoom)-1)))+( var_mid_long  *((256*pow(2,$(var_zoom)))/360)) + round(map_size_x/2))

Y Axis:

Static Min:   =((256*pow(2,($(var_zoom)-1)))+((0.5*log((1+(sin(var_mid_lat*pi()/180)))/(1-(sin(var_mid_lat*pi()/180)))))*((-256*pow(2,$(var_zoom)))/(2*pi())))+round(map_size_y/2))

Static Max:  =((256*pow(2,($(var_zoom)-1)))+((0.5*log((1+(sin(var_mid_lat*pi()/180)))/(1-(sin(var_mid_lat*pi()/180)))))*((-256*pow(2,$(var_zoom)))/(2*pi())))-round(map_size_y/2))

Longitude:

=round (256*pow(2,($(var_zoom)-1)))+( Longitude *((256*pow(2,$(var_zoom)))/360))

Latitude:

=sum((256*pow(2,($(var_zoom)-1)))+((0.5*log((1+(sin((Latitude)*pi()/180)))/(1-

try where says  max_zoom_Leel = #  (Could be from 1 to 17)

Doble check in the variables that Latitude and Longitude is wrote correctly, just like your latitude and longitude Table. Is it wrot correctly?

Yes, they are all set to Latitude, and Longitude
