GGeoXml (or Google Maps) dont support icon rotation at the moment. Primarlly because image rotation is not well supported in browsers yet. The cartrip example uses canvas to rotate, and I imagine Google will want better browser support (**) before implementing it.
** For example IE (6+7 at least) dont support it, which like it or not still have a the dominent market share. 2009/1/6 sabrick <[email protected]>: > > I bring in kmls which are dynamically created server-side like this: > > > var KML = new GGeoXml("http://someURL/someKML.kml";); > map.addOverlay(KML); > > These kmls hold Icons, like this: > > <Placemark id = "367083580"> > <name>ROCKFISH</name> > <styleUrl>NSV</styleUrl> > <Point> > <coordinates>-95.23,29.725725,0</coordinates> > </Point> > <Style> > <IconStyle> > <scale>.7</scale> > <heading>250</heading> > <Icon> > <href>http://muURL/someIcon.png</href> > </Icon> > </IconStyle> > </Style> > </Placemark> > > In GoogleEarth, the <heading> node controls the rotation of the Icon > from 0 to 360 degrees.
