That depends how you create the polyline you are talking about. If you create a polyline using just two end points, you get a straight line between the two end points. That doesn't sound like what you want, though. If you request a route between two points from the Directions service, and use the polyline that the service returns to you in its results, you will have a polyline that curves and turns as it follows streets. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
