Thanks Marc. I've been away and didn't see your response. I removed the setVisible(false) but it doesn't make any difference. Also, I am hiding the pano div initially since if you don't you get a blank streetview with the controls displayed. I guess what is there now works but it would be nice to have an instanteous indication as to whether or not a streetview is present. Are you saying that there is an instanteous indication available?
