Is IE8 supported?

[sidkshatriya]

Do you support IE8 in this library?

[xavijam]

Yes, we do. Have you found any issue?

Cheers!

[sidkshatriya]

I have a layer that has some transparency. The transparency is shown properly in IE9/Chrome etc. but not in IE8

[xavijam]

Have you tried this example? http://vizzuality.github.com/cartodb-gmapsv3/examples/custom-infowindow.html

I can set the opacity correctly in IE8.

Which library version are you using?

[sidkshatriya]

I'm using version 0.46

Yes, the example link you gave me works. I'm specifying the following for a particular layer via carto css:

#my_table_name { polygon-fill:#FF6600; line-color:grey; polygon-opacity:0.01; line-width:0; line-opacity:0; }

I add that layer using new CartoDBLayer({ ... }). It works in IE9/Chrome etc (but not in IE8)

[xavijam]

I've use your carto css code in this example and works in all browsers, IE7 and IE8 included, see the source code:

http://vizzuality.github.com/cartodb-gmapsv3/examples/custom-infowindow.html

Any luck?

[sidkshatriya]

Thanks for asking. No luck!

When I specify opacity for a layer by saying:

new CartoDBLayer({ opacity: 0.50 .... }) the layer is shown with the correct opacity.

However, if I specify opacity 0.50 via carto css on cartodb.com the layer is shown with opacity of 1. Somehow IE8 does not take the pre-set opacity of the PNG tiles into account.

Please note that the example you provided (http://vizzuality.github.com/cartodb-gmapsv3/examples/custom-infowindow.html) has opacity set in the CartoDBLayer constructor.

Ok, so the problem is when changes the opacity in the CartoCSS, isn't it? In execution time? Or at the beginning as well?

The problem occurs whenever any layer has transparency specified via CartoCSS e.g. polygon-opacity: 0.4

Basically PNG tiles which already have some alpha in them seem to cause problems

I've tried changing the carto-css in the polygons and works ok (IE7-8-9 and rest), at least for me (last version of the library), see screenshots attached:

Also, change the opacity of the layer is not the same as change the carto-css. So, if you have the layer opacity set to 0.5, and then your tile_style has the polygon-opacity set to 0.5, both are complementary.

Appreciate you spending time on this. Add another layer on top of this (preferably a tilejson with wax ) and try this again please.

Hi Sidharth!

I've added a wax layer + 2 cartodb layers, and then I have edited one of the cartodb layer and seems like it is working properly. The example is here:

http://vizzuality.github.com/cartodb-gmapsv3/examples/custom-infowindow.html

Is it the scenario I should replicate? Could you try it?

Also a screenshot working in IE8:

Cheers!
