I think I may have figured this out. I was creating a new image, setting the source to the image I was going to overlay and sometimes it would not create the image object. I was trying to get the height from it. So I was trying to overlay an object with the bounds of 0,0 and 0,0 so nothing was showing up.
I'm going to play around with it more to make sure. On Mar 30, 1:49 pm, Joey <[email protected]> wrote: > I am using lat lon parameters.
