In (2), if you are searching for points on R1 then you can be sure that they lie on R1! However, if a route A to B passes through C, D and E in that order -- that is, Google finds the route A-B goes A-C-D-E-B -- then you can be reasonably sure that it has found the optimal route. So the route C-E will also pass through D, and D-E will follow the same roads as that part of the route A-B. The directions service uses the geocoder to find start and end points, so you can use anything the geocoder recognises. That's generally addresses and not businesses; in some countries milestones or junctions might work. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API V2" group.
