Google Maps language in GeographicLocation

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi.

I'm trying to display google maps in my drawing.

Entering command GEOGRAPHICLOCATION i recieve such form

http://screencast.com/t/Tjnf7cba

Everything works perfect, but all the texts in google maps are in english, not in russian.

Why is that? I have Russian Autocad Map 3d 2014 installed, and my Autodesk 360 account also assigned to russian language.

What should i do to display google maps with russian texts?

HI,

 

>> I'm trying to display google maps in my drawing

You can't! What you are seeing in the GEOGRAPHICLOCATION dialog is Bing-maps content, not Google maps!

So try http://www.bing.com/maps/ and see how's displayed there.

Oh, I see now. Thank's a lot for your explanation.
Is there some way to change content from Bing to Google, or will it be in the next versions of Autocad?

Hi,

 

>> Is there some way to change content from Bing to Google

At the moment it's not possible to change the link.

And for the future I guess it depends on licensing, as the licensing rules from Google (changed in 2012) made Autodesk to switch to Bing-maps.
