      • So, due to lack of XP laptops out there off the shelf, I had to get a Vista machine. Sadly, my camera does not work well with it, even with the 1.3 version that is suppose to fix the issues. The problem is with the audio - it has static all the time.

I have no control of the container page -- it¡¯s a Cold Fusion app that someone else hosts. I¡¯m just providing them the iframe content. But back to my issue: after clicking se

      • So far here are some useful methods that I've found have not been documented in the SDK yet: 1) VEShape.Show() - Shows the shape 2) VEShape.Hide() - Hides the shape 3) VEMap.GetShapeLayerByIndex(index) - where index is an integer, you can now loops through all your shape layers to find out exactly what is stuck on the map. If you directly add shapes to the map without using layers, it is added to

It would also be nice to be able to add more than one site, such that each site has a different name and is displayed in a different tab. Both of these are possible by editing the JavaScript manually, but being able to use the wi
