Are pushpin layers possible?

Hi,

give a look at theVirtual Eart V3 API,that supports layers. Be careful however that it isn't fully compatiblewith MS AJAX (it seems to fight with the UpdatePanel). TheVirtualEarthMap control shipped with MS AJAX supports the V2 API.
Thank you for your response. I gather that it would be impossible to use your mashup as starting code and then use Atlas client scripting to make calls to the v3 api. Is this correct? Is there anyway to override the v2 api that shipped with Atlas to use v3 instead? Does this mean I would have to use only the v3 api and skip any usage of AtlasUIMap (I think the answer is yes but I'm hoping otherwise...)

Hi,

the V2 API that the VirtualEarthMap control is wrapping is simpy "hard-coded" at the beginning of the AtlasUIMap, thus the first thing to do is replacing it with the V3 code.

Actually I did it and it seemed to work, but unfortunately it started to fight with the UpdatePanel. So, if you aren't going to use the UpdatePanel in your app, you could give it a try.
