Hi,
I'm trying my first Silverlight project out with Map Suite and have some questions regarding the support of Google Maps as an overlay.
I see some code examples in the How Do I Samples under Overlays Folder called UseGoogleMaps but when I run the How Do I samples I don't see this sample active in the menu on the right so I'm not sure if it's fully supported or not. Nonetheless I went ahead and tried using the code in the How Do I Samples and got some of it working but with some of the issues below:
When I use the client side GoogleOverlay it sort of works but I get a Google logo for each tile instead of once in the lower right corner.
I then tried to using the GoogleMapsLayer object on the Server side and addomg it to the SilverlightMapConnector and using it, this seemed to work better once I changed it to SingleTile mode but the Google Logo was showing up randomly on the map instead of in the lower right corner. Also the speed seemed very slow compared to the Map Suite Web Edition support for Google maps and overall I like the Multi Tile better than Single Tile so would rather use that if possible. Attached is a screen shot of what I mean by the misplaced Google Logo.
With all that said I guess my main question is does Map Suite Silverlight have support for Google Maps? If so do you have a best practices sample on how to do it?
Also does the Silverlight Edition have support for Bing Maps? Ideally in my application I would like to switch back and forth between Google and Bing and then display my shapefile on top of these base maps (I have a question about this too which I will be posting soon :)).
Thanks!
