We just released the Web.Maps.VE v1.00.03 update release. This is the biggest update that we've done to Web.Maps.VE. We've recieved alot of customer feedback, and this update reflects that. We've added many features/enhancements that have been requested by our customers.
Here's a full list of what's changed in this update:
New Features
- Traffic data support added with the following new Map object properties:
- ShowTraffic - this determines whether the Traffic data is shown on the map.
- ShowTrafficLegend - this determines whether the Traffic Legend is shown on the map when Traffic data is shown.
- TrafficLegendText - this allows the display of any additional text within the Traffic Legend.
- Map.MapView property added that gets populated on all Asynchronous Postbacks. This allows the visible area of the map to be determined during any Async Postback as needed.
- MapActionExtender control - This control has been added to allow basic map actions (like: Zoom In, Zoom Out, Set Aerial Map Style) to be performed on the client-side without the need to write any JavaScript code.
- JavaScript Support - JavaScript support has been added to allow for much more custom solutions to be built using the control. We will also be releasing tutorials and articles on working with the control from within JavaScript using the supported methods and events.
- SSL Support - This version uses the https url for VE6 so there is no longer a security popup when using the control within an SSL secured website.
- Newly redesigned Sample Website
Enhancements/Fixes
- Map.OnMapLoaded event is no longer fired when unhandled within server-side code.
- Shape/Pushpin Performance Enhancement - the way the control keeps track of which shapes are plotted on the map has been modified to reduce the amount of client-side memory usage and prevent a possible memory leak.
