Google Maps Flex API - UK postcodes

Hi all,
I dare say most of you are not in the UK so may not have info on this, but I have started to grapple with this problem. The Google Maps API appears to recognise town names in England, even relatively small ones provided I put in county and country details. But so far as I can tell, UK postcodes are not being recognised in the way that US ZIP codes are. Has anyone else encountered this and if so how did you work around it? The Tour de Flex Yahoo maps example seems to know about postcodes but I have to confess I don't like the appearance of their maps so much...
Richard

If this is related to the Google Maps Geocode call try formatting your search string as PostCode + ", UK"
i.e."TN13 2TB, UK"
Another technique is to call "Google local search", see the example
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/flash/demogallery.html?searchquery=local%20 search&classname=
Set the search type to "The GeoWeb" and type postcode as above(TN13 2TB, UK), the source code is supplied.

Use Google Map without API

Hi ,
Can we use google maps withou API .
just by using the HTML link.. code
checked the blog :
/people/gregor.wolf3/blog/2006/06/27/geocode-business-partner-with-google-maps
Where the latitude and longitude can be changed.
How can we use the map to be displayed on web ui Accounts
page?
when searched ,the address of the bp has to be passed .
Thanks,
Anitha.

Hi Robert,
you're right, in CRM 7.0 EhP1 this requirement is easy to implement using the Mashup-Tool. Here you can directly call the Google Map providing the address of the Business Partner in the URL i.e. http://maps.google.de/maps?q=TrostbergerStra%C3%9Fe128,83342,Tacherting. But also without the Mashup-Tool you can implement this functionality by creating a assignment block that provides an iView calling the BSP Application I've described in the blog or also call the URL provided above.
Best regards
Gregor

When drag Google Maps (embed/API) control trigger swipeleft or swiperight event

Swipeleft o swiperight events are trigger not only with touch screens, also with mouse pointer in PC/Mac. The problem is that if the user move mouse for move map to right or to left, then these events are triggered.
How can I prevent it?

Using Map-options you can disable dragging ,zooming etc
ex :
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('Stage_Rectangle'),
mapOptions);
map.setOptions({draggable: false, zoomControl: false, scrollwheel: false, disableDoubleClickZoom: true});

How to show google maps in JPanel

How do i show the google maps in Java Application.
Please help me.

Yup, that's it. Notice that it's "The Google Maps *JavaScript* API" so you're going to have to provide a JavaScript runtime environment in your JPanel. That shouldn't be impossible given that Java does contain such a thing these days, but the AJAX aspects (where the API wants to connect to the Google servers) might be tricky. Perhaps somebody has done this sort of thing already and posted it on Sourceforge or something.

Map marker + geolocation (google maps)

I'm currently working on embedding a google map in my app. The geolocating already works ( I used this code: DPS Tips HTML5 Examples, thanks Bob!), but I just can't add markers to the map. I tried different codes but none seem to work. I would also need the markers to have their names shown (e.g. hotspot 1, hotspot 2).
Has anyone here found a solution for this and would be kind enough to share?
Thanks in advance!

hi! I used the code for geolocation from the link above, and this code for the marker: Simple markers - Google Maps JavaScript API v3 — Google Developers
It both works independently, but I can't mix them. I also can't find a way to modify my marker ( own icon) and add an info box.
I tried some of the following links to try and work those aspects to the marker file, if it helps with finding a solution:

Cfmap with CF9.01 and Google map v3

The information I've seen indicates there is a hotfix for CF9.01 which will allow the cfmap tag to work with Google maps v3. We have installed the latest hot fixes.
I obtain an error when trying to use the Google maps v3 API key with the cfmap tag indicating you are trying to use a non v2 key. Google is discontinuing support of v2 on Nov 19.
Is there something else we need to do to be able to use cfmap with v3? Do we need to upgrade to CF9.02?
Upgrading to CF10 prior to Nov 19 is not an option.
Does anyone have sample code to share?
Thanks for your help.

Qickly changed Tramps to Gramps?
To place a google map in your site, have a look here http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/exchange/index.cfm?event=extensionDetail&extid=2187524. This will enable you to place a pin on your address.
To have your address placed in a google.com hosted site, you will need to Google the subject.

IOS Google Maps

Hi all.
I developed an application using google maps. Doing the test on the simulator IOS everything worked. But installing the application on your apple device maps are not loading. I tried to update and flash builder and air at 3.7 to 4.7 but still does not work.
You have no idea how to get around this?
thanks
Flash Builder 4.7
AIR 3.7

Are you using the Google Maps Flash API? If you are using it it will not work on iOS because Apple does not allow to load swf files after and App is initialised and the API makes use of this handling.
You can work with the StageWebView or take a look at the eskimo lib developed by people-in-action. They have a GMap component which uses the StageWebView to communicate with a google maps html site via actionscript - javascript communication (https://github.com/People-in-action/eskimo).

Replacing Flash Google Maps

Hi,
As of 3rd Sept 2014 Google Maps Flash API has been closed. I have a browser based swf which incorporates a map in its interface that now doesn't function.
Would anyone have any suggestions on a replacement API or method of showing an interactive map (e.g. Google Map JavaScript API) within the swf?
Thanks,
Mark

Google Maps Reloading Images even after completed

Hi, my Maps on iPad 64GB #G + Wifi is acting strange. It keeps reloading images from maps even after it has been loaded infinitely.
I've made a video of what's happening.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=TLLfUZKNTi8
anyone knows what's causing this?

Having the EXACT SAME PROBLEM here. Appears this is a widespread problem but difficult to find any information on. Seems this may have to do with Google's latest api implementation relaease and a conflict with Safari.
Another issue that I have had and looking through Google and Apple forums seems to be other are having this also is, in ability to zoom in or out after a map does maage to load. First the flicker problem now seems to be EVERY TIME i go into maps. It was or seemed to be an intermittent problem but no longer. When I was able to load a page I often could not ZOOM IN or OUT. I thought this had to do with my connection but have read other have the same issue and it was when connected to a perfect 3G or WiFi signal.
My info is as such;
1. Ipad 64gb w/3G
2. This Ipad is not Jailbroken
3. Running 4.2.1
4. Problem occurs when connected via WiFi and 3G
5. No other apps running in background (or at least not initiated by me. I have not tried turning off push notifications).
Here are some links I have found related to what seems to be this issue.

Embedding a Google map

where can I find documentation on embedding a Google map into a BC web page

This also depends on what functionality you are hoping for to. Typically the simple embed gives you only the basic map. I use the API as it gives me tons of control.
To see the difference in the methods and how to do it go to the Google Maps section Google Maps Web APIs — Google Developers

IPhone + google maps

I'm developing an app that uses the google map api for flash and publishing it with the iPhone packager. If i test my movie, everything works, but when it is run on an actual iPhone the map comes up completely grey.. any ideas?

This question has a simple answer, if you use google maps as3 library in your project it will fail to load because the map class tries to load an swf into the application. And because swf files won't run on an iphone you get a grey box.
You could try yahoo maps, or use the google maps web api .

Google Maps like "Ontario Magazine"

I'd like to use the Google Maps feature like "Ontario Magazine" does. You can even use Street View in their magazine.
Any suggestions?

Ontario Magazine is using the new Google Maps JavaScript API v3, wich is now the official way of using google maps on your website or mobile device.
See the documentation here:
http://code.google.com/intl/en/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/
With that you add many parameters (like map zoom and all the additional blobs) to the javascript call. This involves basic knowledge about Javascript.
Like Bob said, you need to make a HTML page with all the neccessary keys and data (see google's documentation) and that should give you the effect like in the ontario magazine, even enabling google streetview.

Google Maps API for flash not working on real device iPad

I use flash builder 4.5.1 to build app for Google Maps API for iOS (map_flex_1_20.swc), and it is working well even on the simulator on PC, but after I generate the IPA use FB4.5.1, and install on iPad , it not working at all, only show a while screen.(I used the TabbedViewNavigatorApplication, the botton Tabbar is working, I can switch the page, but on the maps page show nothing)
I also try the code on Flash CS5.5 using map_1_20.swc , when on the PC debug, it works well,(swf files), but install the AIR ipa on the iPAD, show nothing only a white sceeen.
anyone met this problem?

You can also use the MapQuest Mobile Flash Maps API. It's supported by MapQuest and does not need any work-arounds in order to work with the Flash Platform. It also takes advantage of the "build once, deploy anywhere" functionality in Flex 4.5+. MapQuest provides a demo app for Android and iOS and has the source code available for download, too.

Google Maps from within Flex.

I'm totally new to Flex and have jumped right in at the deep end...
I'm working on an app for gig lovers.
Basically you choose your favorite genres of music with check boxes, then put your postcode in and it will tell you the nearest gigs to you and give you details of each one.
On the right hand side of the app though I would like the app to access google maps somehow and give you a map to the gig.
Also, it will (probably) need to access google maps in order to assess which gigs are near you.
Could anyone give me any hints on how to do this?Or just tell me that it can't be done lol.
Cheers

Cool.
Thanks.
Would it be cheeky if I asked someone to possibly write me a simple walkthrough for building something like this?
Like I say, I'm very new to the world of Flex
