Re: [Gwt-openlayers-users] Issue With Mouse Position

[Edwin C. <com...@gm...>]

Hi AbdElhadi,

Thank you for pointing out the problem.

I haven't done anything with Google Maps in GWT-OpenLayers, so I cannot help
you out on short notice there. The Google Maps wrapper code has been created
by Erdem and Aaron.

I will try to get a Google example into the showcase, because I think it's
really one of the strengths of OpenLayers that it can integrate with layers
from different parties.

It would be nice to have people that intensively use layers from different
parties on board. Myself, I intensively use the WMS and Vector layers. Now
that OpenLayers 2.8 has WFS support I also want to devote more attention to
that.

I tried out the showcase with OL 2.8 this morning and everything seems to
work fine :-)...

Greetings,
Edwin
