@SGaist yes, it changed, but it seems, x and y values of requested QGeoTileSpec's almost the same
Or I'm doing something wrong or math behind thist sticked to tiles 256x256

@vladstelmahovsky GoogleMaps plugin updated with new tiles engine, w/o annoying copyright on every tile (this doesnt means that you dont have to put copyright sign over the map)

Nice !

Did you solve the tiling size issue ?

vladstelmahovsky · S SGaist 17 Mar 2016, 20:34

@SGaist nope. I think its hardcoded somewhere in tile renderer. But with new code its not needed anymore

SGaist · 16 May 2016, 12:57

That's a good news :)

@SGaist

My project works with "osm" and "here" plugins provided by qt. How do we add this plugin to the project. Any help in this regard is highly appreciated!

Hi,

Build and install the plugin. It should go on the corresponding subfolder in your Qt installation. From there you can use it like the other plugins.

@SGaist

Even I was trying the same but it is giving me this dialogbox.

@saitej this is because you trying to execute plugin which is impossible of cause. Choose your application as active project
When building plugins dont forget to add "make install" step to the project settings to make sure your plugin will be integrated into current Qt build

@vladstelmahovsky Google maps plugin updated with Goecoding/Reverse geocoding support

@vladstelmahovsky thanks for your wonderful plugin, but I need to add more map types or styles to use in my apps

How can I support a new MapType in your plugin?

I am not sure what other types of maps does Google Map support, but I need something like what is used in Uber and other apps on Android. Is that possible?

vladstelmahovsky · 8 Sept 2016, 20:19

@Yasser-Sobhy can you give an screenshot example?

@vladstelmahovsky I have read Google Static Map API at https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/static-maps/intro

I think you need to add a few parameters to your plugin so maps get correctly rendered on mobile devices, these parameters are: scale, and format

also I wonder if you plan to add Bing Maps support, you can achieve this with a few changes to you Google Map plugin, as the API is almost the same https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff701724.aspx

I can create it, but I am very busy now and I have no time to do this, if you have time to write it, please do to enrich QtLocation

Thanks

Fixed routing in google plugin. Now path is correct

@vladstelmahovsky Great work!
Is it possible to use your plugin without having a custom Qt build? Like as part of my application. assume i haven't installed the Qt sources, just .dll on my windows. If so, is there anything to pay attention to?
Thx.

@petere if you'll build and install plugin for your Qt it will be added to Qt's plugins and should be deployed later on your target (at least it works for Android)
