Simple Google Maps Question

[pixelpop]

Hi. I am new to B4A but a longtime VB programmer. I have waded through all the threads here and examined both GoogleMapsWebView and OSMDroid. GoogleMapsWebView examples are way more than I need to do and OSMDroid does not appear to be Google Maps.

So, here is my question--can someone post an example that uses Google Maps to:

1. Display map in a specified location and size.
2. Position the map center to a specified lat/long (not GPS).
3. Display a bubble, pointer or some other bitmap indicating the location.
4. Would be nice to be able to specify a label on the bitmap, but not required.

I have tried the Google Url (http://maps.google.com/maps/api/staticmap?...) but get a permission denied message. This would be the ideal method for me if I could get it to work.

Thanks to all and please don't beat the noob. Love B4A!!

OK, think I have this nailed down. I have static maps working but at some point I may want to go dynamic (with user pan and zoom controls) and I'm sure I'll be back then. But for now I'm good. Thanks.
