This is a floating point rounding error introduced by our longitude wrapping function. If you're absolutely sure that your latitude is between -90 and 90, and longitude between -180 and 180, you could pass true to the noWrap parameter of the LatLng constructor and the wrapping function will be byp

Re: [Google Maps API v3] Change bounds, zoom with a dropdown

I suggest storing bounds for each area, and calling fitBounds. This way, an appropriate zoom level will be chosen by the API depending on size of the map on the screen. Or, if you choose particular zoom level for each location, store that along with the center LatLng and call setZoom on the map.

Re: [Google Maps API v3] Re: hidden copy of infowindow

If you want to reference to your content inside the InfoWindow, the best way is to call setContent with a DOM Node, and keep a reference to the DOM Node in a variable. Did you try this? The link you provided has a LOT of code (which is obfuscated, by the way), which isn't very useful for us to hel

Re: [Google Maps API v3] storing lat/log for each entries in my db?

I think the terms are pretty straightforward here. You may want to consult a lawyer to see whether your implementation complies with ToS. Perhaps you should have the user click/drop a marker where the house should be on the map. This would certainly comply with the ToS. On Wed, Feb 2, 2011 at 3:3

It seems to drop onto the grey tiles for me. Maybe you should wait for the 'tilesloaded' event to fire. -- http://twitter.com/broady -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group. To post to this group, send email to google-

Re: [Google Maps API v3] Get All Roads on Google Maps and Cover Them with Polyline

Well, we don't expose road data, unfortunately. You can get something similar from Open Street Map. There's no real way to do this. You could emulate something similar with styled maps laid on top of each other, but showing/hiding portions of map tiles would likely be a breach of the Maps API ToS.

Re: [Google Maps API v3] Using JSON file to plot multiple points on Google Maps.

You can definitely do it just in JavaScript... here's a starting point (untested..) function addMarker(map, data) { var marker = new google.maps.Marker({ position: new google.maps.LatLng(+data.latitude, +data.longitude), icon: data.markerImage }); google.maps.event.addListener(marker

Scale changes depending on the location on the earth's surface due to the projection we use. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercator_projection The scale control isn't particularly useful at low zoom levels. Chris On Tue, Jan 25, 2011 at 4:36 PM, Farooq Mahmood wrote: > Is anyone having any idea
