Hi Aaron- We now supply the suggested viewport in the geocoding response. You can see what it looks like here: http://gmaps-samples-flash.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/demos/GeocodingDetails/GeocodingDetails.html It's in ExtendedData -> LatLonBox - > east/west/north/south
You can create a LatLngBounds out of that, and then center using map.setCenter(bounds.getCenter(), map.getBoundsZoomLevel(bounds)); - pamela On Fri, May 29, 2009 at 3:54 PM, Aaron Donohue <[email protected]> wrote: > > I am attempting to implement search capability on a google map similar > to the GeocodeSimple example ( > http://gmaps-samples-flash.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/examples/GeocodingSimple.html > ).
