Can't use KML

Post by Warchief »

Hello!
I've tried to use KML-file created by Google-earth app. Uploaded the file into an online filestorage, placed URL of file into an edit in "settings" - and see nothing on map. What can be wrong?

After a while a completed a task to display KML, but it can be seen only on google-earth mode. Do you know the reason of this bug?

Hi,
sorry, I don't know. The KML feature is provided by Google so I cannot solve this problem. But my personal KML files have always worked. Maybe you should give it another try. Maybe start with a simple KML. If it does not work you have to contact Google directly.

Hi! Can you give an example of any KML that works both in google-earth and normal map mode?

I only use KML file that work in map mode. I didn't know that KML works with the web version of Google Earth at all. I always start the native Google Earth application when I want to view external KML files in Google Earth. I just googled for any sample kml file and it worked. try this one http://www.geocontext.org/publ/2010/04/ ... anjaro.kml and scroll to africa to see kilimanjaro.
