Re^2: Controlling Google Earth via COM interface

You seem to be guessing at the API.

The API description of ICameraInfoGE is right here. I've used the Google Earth API extensively in C++, including ICameraInfoGE. I've used the iTunes API to examine and set Track info using Perl in the same manner as my first example and it works just dandy. So something specific to Perl and Google Earth seems to be going on.

How would you use that in VB? `$cameraInfo->{Range}= 500; $cameraInfo->->LetProperty( Range => 500);` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

How would you use that in VB? I don't use VB so I don't know the syntax in that language, but in C++, this works: `CoInitialize(NULL); IApplicationGEPtr smpGoogleEarth(__uuidof(ApplicationGE)); pCIGE = smpGoogleEarth->GetCamera(false); // (try/catch block left out +) pCIGE->Range = 500.;` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

`pCIGE->Range = 500.;` [download] Is the decimal point significant? Looks to me like `Range` is of type `double`. HTH, planetscape	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Sorry, I don't c++, and Win32::OLE documentation only shows VB to perl equivalent syntaxt. Did you try my guess?	[reply]
