> Has anyone else seen this behavior before, or have a fix for it? just to get terminology right, it's not a custom control but a regular GControl which you have repositioned.
and in case you're curious, the control slips behind the map in Chrome for Windows, too. I'm not sure how you would fix it - you could try putting it in a div and playing with the z-index (unlikely to work, but maybe worth a try) or seeing if the GControl would accept a z-index parameter the way that markers do (even less likely) as shown here: http://econym.org.uk/gmap/zindex.htm but I think the problem is with the way that Earth interacts with the API - from what I can tell, changing the map to Earth type overlays the Earth map and its control on top of the GControl, as you can see that the style of the control changes when you switch to Earth mode. Something that I have noticed, though, is that if you make a truly Custom Control (like in this example: http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/v2/examples/control-custom.html) the divs that you append to the map sit right at the top, and will even sit on top of the Control in Earth view, as you can see with the search box here: http://www.xelawho.com/map So maybe that would be a workaround. Sorry for the wishy-washy advice. Maybe somebody else has a more concrete idea. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API V2" group.
