Bing or google maps image?

Questions
#1

Hi

is there anyway to provide a postal code or address to a control that would show either bing or google image with the position provided ?

#2

You can use either the WebImage or WebBrowser control. Both of those can display web content. You can display the postal code or address with a Label.

Hi Bill,

Ok thanks for this now I have another question,

the following URL is what I would like to use to display a map in the Homeremote app:

https://dev.virtualearth.net/REST/v1/Imagery/Map/road/[long,lat]?mapSize=400,400&pushpin=[long,lat]&mapLayer=basemap&format=jpeg&key=[Bing_Key]

I know I can create a control webimage control and enter the URL in the source value of that control BUT I can’t figure out how to replace [long,lat] in the control source value field with my Homeseer Long Lat value field ?

can you guide me to do so

thanks

I will share an example with you in a few days. The preferred way of doing this isn’t supported in the current version.

Thank you Bill, I’ll wait for your feedback.

Use a MultiBinding to do this. For the StringFormat, enter your URL & replace [long,lat] with {0}. Then add your HomeSeer LongLat variable to the Bindings box.

Attached are 2 examples you can look at. One uses a WebBrowser & the other uses a WebImage.
