Okay, silly mistake about the contains, made sense to me it would
accept a LatLngBounds but it accepts only a LatLng
But now I managed to prove the error with the intersects()
Was trying to add a map with the script so people could see the error,
but don't have anywhere to place it.
basically making a GeocoderRequest with:
geocoder.geocode({
address : 'getúlio',
bounds : map.getBounds()
language: 'pt_BR'
});
and then check the result with the intersects
mapBounds.intersect(results[0].geometry.bounds); // returns false
why is that?
