I want to have a large map of berlin from which you see multiple routes. Unfortunately a DirectionsRenderer zooms to the route so you have to manually zoom out again.
How do I avoid this behavior?
var $canvas = document.querySelector('#map');
var map = new google.maps.Map($canvas, {
center: new google.maps.LatLng(52.46004869999999, 13.37898690),
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP,
zoom: 14
});
var routes = [
{
origin: new google.maps.LatLng(52.459281, 13.356367),
destination: new google.maps.LatLng(52.455833, 13.322948),
travelMode: google.maps.TravelMode.BICYCLING
},
{
origin: new google.maps.LatLng(52.597621, 13.430536),
destination: new google.maps.LatLng(52.5918799, 13.2832929),
travelMode: google.maps.TravelMode.BICYCLING
}
];
routes.forEach(function(route) {
new google.maps.DirectionsService().route(route, function(body) {
var display = new google.maps.DirectionsRenderer();
display.setMap(map);
display.setDirections(body);
});
});

Use the preserveViewport option of the DirectionsRenderer to prevent the automatic zoom to the route, then set the viewport you like.
{preserveViewport: true}
Or if you want, calculate the union of the bounds of the directions responses, and fit the map to that.
var bounds = new google.maps.LatLngBounds();
routes.forEach(function(route) {
new google.maps.DirectionsService().route(route, function(body) {
var display = new google.maps.DirectionsRenderer({preserveViewport: true});
display.setMap(map);
display.setDirections(body);
bounds.union(body.routes[0].bounds);
map.fitBounds(bounds);
});
});
