That'll be a problem, the G-Maps API is all geared to representing the Earth's surface where there's no such thing as a straight line. You may have to do your own calculations for a straight line overlaid on the distorted map. You might be able to minimise the apparent error by segmenting the straight line say every 500km, but I think you'd have some 'interesting' calculations to do there to keep it appearing straight though! > It would make more sense to me that a line that > has, say, Moscow left of a GPolyline at one zoomlevel, would still > have it left at any other zoomlevel. I suspect that's exactly how the geodesic version behaves, it acts like a straight line but it won't please your eye because it doesn't LOOK straight. good luck, Ross K --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
