Known Issues
- When using Google Maps on localhost they can work with not properly obtained keys
(even that given in the samples here), but in order to work without problems you
have to obtain a key for the desired domain;
- Driving direction will not appear on localhost, but on the public site/domain for
which you have obtained the key, they will be shown properly (That is probably protection
or security issue of Google Maps API). Check out next discussion: [url: Getting
around the Google API Key Issue on localhost | https://www.codeplex.com/Thread/View.aspx?ProjectName=googlemap&ThreadId=22070]
- When using GoogleMap control inside *ASP.NET AJAX TabPanel* you have to set size
of the control in pixels (not in percents) in order to get control working properly;
- Static map will not work on localhost. Check out [url: Getting around the Google
API Key Issue on localhost | https://www.codeplex.com/Thread/View.aspx?ProjectName=googlemap&ThreadId=22070];
- The max size of the static map is 512x512. Code cuts it if is greater, otherwise
static map will not work;
- Only markers are supported for static map - no traffic, no overlays, no directions
etc. This is like it is - that's just provided by Google Maps API. There is no as
I can see so far support for custom makers icons as well. So, the standard markers'
icons are used only on the static map;
