Road Colour Changes (UK)
MSDN Forums: Virtual Earth -
Hello All,
I was using v5 and just this morning the road colours changed... the map now looks cluttered and old... a bit AutoRoute 02'ish!
I have just changed it to v6.1 and still the same unfortunately.
Does anyone know how to change back to the old road colours? Or are we stuck with this new look?
Thanks,
Dave
Virtual Earth autoupgrade 6.0 to 6.1 issues with Information boxes
MSDN Forums: Virtual Earth - We've noticed today that our mapping's information boxes are not appearing since the autoupgrade. The strange this is that when you click on a development by holding down the control key and left click the mouse the information boxes appear.
If anyone can help, it would be very much appreciated.
The url is http://www.savills.co.uk/newhomes/SearchResults.aspx?region=Northamptonshire&minPrice=0&maxPrice=1000000000&bedrooms=0&typeList=House,Flat&categoryList=Open_Market,Shared_Ownership,Retirement_or_Assisted,Fractional_Ownership
or you can just do another search from the homepage to get to the final map.
This mapping was written by my predecessor so I am new to mapping.

Straight line between two points?
MSDN Forums: Virtual Earth -
I want to plot lines between points on a map. I am trying to create an origin and destination map and can plot my push pins ok for the origin and destination, but I need to have lines connecting the two, not route lines, just straight lines so I know 1 point is associated with another. Haven't seen any examples of how to do this.

GetBoundingRectangle();
MSDN Forums: Virtual Earth -
Hi everyone at Microsoft
Can you please make the map.SetMapView(myLayer.GetBoundingRectangle()); zoom OUT 1 notch more... PRETTY PLEASE!, it's hard work looking for icons under the map control, if you can just set it to zoom out a little more, this would be TOPs 
Client Token...
MSDN Forums: Virtual Earth -
Ok I create a web reference to: http://staging.mappoint.net/standard-30/mappoint.wsdl" filename="mappoint.wsdl
I added the following code to my project:
CommonServiceSoap commonService = new CommonServiceSoap();
commonService.Url =
"https://common.virtualearth.net/find-30/common.asmx";
commonService.Credentials =
new System.Net.NetworkCredential("xxxxxxxx","xxxxxxx");
Now how do I tell the map to use this token so I can start using traffic? Does anyone have an example of this?

How to render the map in HTTPS without the warning about secure and nonsecure items?
MSDN Forums: Virtual Earth -
My page shows secure data along with location on the map.
I setup a certificate and created a site that invokes the via earth api but when I browse I get the pop-up about secure and non secure items.
With fiddler2 I can see that the non secure calls (http invocations occur from the API)
How can I make the pop-up disappear?
3D view and ASP.NET server control: Can't get a nice angled view from altitude
MSDN Forums: Virtual Earth -
Hi, hoping someone can help out with what's a simple question.
I am using the new ASP.NET VE map control here on a site, which I am still developing. I put pictures on my map:
http://kenfine.posterous.com/uw-map-overhead
I am using the ASP.NET VE server control in 3d mode, as you see. I can specify an overhead view that is accurate using the following declaration.
Map2.SetMapView(
new MapViewSpecification(new LatLong(47.6565, -122.3055), 1203, -90, 0));
I don't want to specify an overhead view as a default. I want to specify an angled view as a default with my elements placed on it, something like this:
http://kenfine.posterous.com/uw-map-oblique
However, when I specify an angled view using the same latLong, I no longer appear to be in the same location. The control either drives me "into" the earth or into some location well south or west of the view I want to have. The behavior is inconsistent and almost seems like a bug.
I have experimented with LatLongWithAltitude and am having no luck getting the map to go where I want it to go.
Can somone suggest how I can get this to work?
Thanks so much!
