Map no longer centers properly when upgrading to 1.0.2

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I tried to upgrade from gwt-maps-1.0.1 to gwt-maps-1.0.2 and my 
application no longer centers correctly. The call is:

new MapWidget(LatLng.newInstance(38.0, -97.0), 4);

This worked correctly in versions 1.0.0 and 1.0.1.

Can you give some more information or some sample code that used to work for 
you and
a more complete version of the code that now fails?  I've not noticed any 
regression
in the HelloMaps sample or tutorials.

I tried:

    map = new MapWidget(LatLng.newInstance(38.0, -97.0), 4);
    map.setSize("500px", "300px");
    Marker m = new Marker(LatLng.newInstance(38.0, -97.0));
    map.addOverlay(m);

and the maker was in the dead center of the map.

I've have a map embedded in a gwt-ext tabbed panel. Worked just fine until I 
tried 
to upgrade to 1.0.2. Now instead of a map centered on the US, it is centered 
somewhere in the Caribbean and the expected center is off the screen towards 
upper 
left hand corner. My application also displays maps centered on different 
states, 
and all of them exibit the same behavior.

Basically I'm doing something like:

    MapWidget map = new MapWidget(LatLng.newInstance(38.0, -97.0), 4);
    map.setSize("100%", "100%");
    // add a bunch of markers

    Panel mapPanel = new Panel();
    mapPanel.setLayout(new FitLayout());
    mapPanel.add(map);
    mapPanel.addListener(new PanelListenerAdapter() {
        public void onAfterLayout(Container self) {
            map.checkResize();
        }
    });

There is something that changed in gwt-maps-1.0.2, and that is that 
map.checkResize()
no longer contains an implicit map.setCenter().  You can call
map.checkResizeAndCenter() or add the setCenter() call separately.

First of all, see issue 127, where several gwt-ext issues were discussed.

map.checkResizeAndCenter() fixed the problem. This issue can be closed.

I have same problem using gwt query where I initialise the map widget (1.0.4),
append() it to a div and the map center is in top left corner of view pane and 
RHS of
map is grey. in other words center is miscalculated.

map.checkResizeAndCenter() after appending to dom fixes problem. Thank you.
