I want Terrain, but I get Maps. I don't see an attribute that distinguishes the map types other than the name (the link is the same for maps, satellite and terrain). I am using Terrain within the tags, but I get maps. What am I missing? Thanks for the tool and any further help! I am trying to have the script load with my kml file (gps track) and I’m 90% there.

Could 45degree aerial imagery be added as an option by chance (works automatically when zoomed-in with Google maps.) I find Google Earth much easier to navigate than in maps, using a 3dmouse.

Notice the URL. Create a Network Link in your KML file that links to the same URL. That should load it automatically. Gonen, Right Click on Maps/Satellite/Terrain. Notice the URL.

I tried and it works great. My question is: I start GE by clicking on a KML file that I create dynamically (from excel vba) When GE starts. The KML is displayed on the default GE style. I cannot see the GoogleMaps layer buttons... What do I miss ? How can I use the GM layer from inside my KML or at least Select it later after GE starts ? Thanks for a great tool !!!!! Thank you !!

However, the maps cover any clampedToGround polygon (which is what I really need my polygon to be) that I draw, even if I set the draw order of my polygon to 99. Does anyone know if there is a way around this? Is this something intrinsic to Google Earth? Thanks in advance. This seems to be a fantastic tool.

I am just wondering if it is free to use in any case and if not if there is any restriction. I'd like to use it for my application for trade show demonstration but not for commercial. Please, give me an email if possible or reply for the comment. Thank you. Hi there,

I was lead to this link from a very legitimate and trusted source on a Google earth forum, and of course I clicked on the BIG (!!) DOWNLOAD arrow, thinking that was the true download.
