Try using MapOptions to better configure your map on startup. You'll
have to use the map's preinitialize event.
var map:Map = new Map();
map.key = "your-key-here";
map.setSize(new Point(1500, 2350 ));
map. addEventListener(MapEvent.MAP_PREINITIALIZE,
initMap);
map.addEventListener(MapEvent.MAP_READY, onMapReady);
private function initMap(event:MapEvent):void {
var opts:MapOptions = new MapOptions();
opts.center = new LatLng(42.366662,-71.106262);
opts.zoom = 11;
opts.mapType = MapType.NORMAL_MAP_TYPE;
opts.mapTypes = [MapType.NORMAL_MAP_TYPE,
MapType.HYBRID_MAP_TYPE, MapType.SATELLITE_MAP_TYPE];
map.setInitOptions(opts);
}
private function onMapReady(event:MapEvent):void {
map.addControl(new ZoomControl());
map.addControl(new MapTypeControl());
map.addControl(new PositionControl());
map.enableScrollWheelZoom();
map.enableContinuousZoom();
}
In my opinion the Flash API allows for better extension of the core
functionality.
