My application uses the Yahoo Map background overlay. When I call GetBitmap to export a JPEG file of the rendered map it does not have the Yahoo Map background.
I saw this thread (gis.thinkgeo.com/Support/Dis...fault.aspx) where a workaround was given for the Google Map background but I don't see a way to do the same for Yahoo maps. I noticed that the latest release added this support for Virtual Earth. Is there support for this for Yahoo maps?
Thanks,

Bob,
We have GoogleMapLayer and VirtualEarthLayer but don’t support YahooMapLayer for now. I remembered the reason is YahooMap has some limitation which makes it more complicated to implement a layer compared with the other two map providers, and we worked on the simple ones first. We defenitely would like to add a YahooMapLayer in the future but for now, I’m afraid you cannot get the current map with the YahooMap background. :(
Sorry for not being so helpful on this. Let us know if you have any more queries.
Thanks,
Ben
