Yep. Virtually all Google maps are Mercator but "fromLatLngToPixel()" has to be able to handle other oddball projections. It also requires a "new GLatLng()" object for every call which just adds overhead. V3 does not even provide a "fromLatLngToPixel()" method. V3 does provide a "fromLatLngToDivPixel()" method but for tile numbers, you must roll your own. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
