      • Hi, I am currently trying to get the Longitude and Latitude co-ordinates whilst in the Birds Eye view mode but it would seem this is not possible even though you are allowed to set pushpins whilst in this mode... I would have thought if you could set pushpins, you should also be able to retrieve details... Has anyone managed to get around this issue Cheers, Woody.

      • So it works and that's nice and all... but how do I get the button to show up People recognize that button and having a text sign in link is just not the same thing. Personally I think it'd be really stupid not to have that as an option when placing the iframe in your page.
