Not all browsers support the printing of polylines. In recent versions of the API you don't get any control over the polyline technology. The API decides whether to use Canvas, VML, SVG or transparent PNG images depending on what your rendering engine reveals about itself.
If you end up with Canvas, VML or SVG, then the API allows the browser to attempt to print it (even though Chrome makes a mess of polys that use Canvas). If you end up with transparent PNG images, then I believe that the API doesn't send them to be printed, because Google know that all supported rendering engines that end up with PNG polys don't support the printing of transparent PNGs. If you try printing a page that contains a transparent PNG, you'll probably find that the transparent bits get printed as opaque. If the API were to tell the browser to print the poly, then you wouldn't see the map underneath the rectangle that contains the poly. -- http://econym.org.uk/gmap The Blackpool Community Church Javascript Team --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
