p.s. my changelog to get it working consisted of: updating my project to SL3
adding to XAML <m:Map Name="VEMap" CredentialsProvider="you know what" <m:Map Name="minimap" CredentialsProvider="you know what" using Microsoft.VirtualEarth.MapControl; becomes using Microsoft.Maps.MapControl; LocationRect targetBounds = VEMap.GetBoundingRectangle(VEMap.TargetView); becomes LocationRect targetBounds = VEMap.BoundingRectangle; VEMap.TargetView.Center becomes VEMap.Center VEMap.TargetView.ZoomLevel becomes VEMap.ZoomLevel *SomeLayer*.AddChild(mp) becomes *SomeLayer*.Children.Add(mp) MapLayer.MapPositionProperty becomes MapLayer.PositionProperty MapLayer.MapPositionMethodProperty becomes MapLayer.PositionOriginProperty PositionMethod.Center becomes PositionOrigin.Center *examples:* el.SetValue(MapLayer.MapPositionProperty, VEMap.ViewportPointToLocation(pos)); becomes el.SetValue(MapLayer.PositionProperty, VEMap.ViewportPointToLocation(pos)); cel.SetValue(MapLayer.MapPositionMethodProperty, PositionMethod.Center); becomes cel.SetValue(MapLayer.PositionOriginProperty, PositionOrigin.Center); The OSM tile source described back here<http://pietschsoft.com/post/2009/03/Virtual-Earth-Silverlight-Overlay-OpenStreetMap2c-OpenAerialMap-and-Yahoo-Map-Imagery-using-Custom-Tile-Layers%21.aspx>continues to work public class OpenStreetMapTileSource : Microsoft.Maps.MapControl.TileSource { public OpenStreetMapTileSource() : base("http://tile.openstreetmap.org/{2}/{0}/{1}.png";) { } public override Uri GetUri(int x, int y, int zoomLevel) { return new Uri(String.Format(this.UriFormat, x, y, zoomLevel)); } } The minimap described here <http://www.earthware.co.uk/blog/index.php/2009/03/virtual-earth-silverlight-minimap-tutorial/>also continues to work. Does that count as TWO Map Sessions since I have had to enter credentials for both the main and the 'mini'map? Way to double your apparent usage while providing a nice UI experience! cd On Wed, Nov 11, 2009 at 9:42 AM, Craig Dunn < [email protected]> wrote: > Yeah - that's fine if you are using Bing Maps data... but are they now > implying that if you use the silverlight _control_ as a host for OSM map > tiles (for example) you still need a key? > > How do 'session counts' etc apply if you are using the SL control with open > source data?
