Bing Maps

[sdel_nevo]

Hi All

i have integrated Bing maps into my Supplier form, and it pulls in the Supplier address nicely.





is there a way for the map to open up full screen?, at the moment it opens up and most of the available map area is taken up on the left by search details, I know that the user can click on the button beside the printer icon and the map will open up to fill the available space.

is there a way to make the map open full screen by default??

many thanks

Steve

What URL parameters are you using for the map?

Have you tried adding
&w=100%

Hi Alex

the URL I'm using is

="www.bing.com/maps/default.aspx?en-GB=&where1=" & [Full Address] & "&lvl=15" i tried putting &w=100% at the end of the URL but it didnt change.

Hi Steve-
Were you able to resolve this? If so, can you help me to achieve full screen as well? I am using Bing Map in the Access 2013 browser. It pulls the look up similar to yours in your post. But I would love for it to open in full screen.
Thank you,

Mike

The & shouldn't have "amp;"

Another suggestion was the 100% on the iframe as well as in the query string.

Hi michael621
sorry for the late reply, unfortunately not, we finished this project as It was, the end users just used it with the default results.

How about trying the EMBED?

HI Alex

Ah I see, sorry the previous links didn't help.

I'm going to have a go myself when I get some free time and see if I can get it working.

It's a neat idea to have it available.

Hi Alex

mate your heads up is great, and I will try the above as soon as im free, my boss at the time did not want me to spend the time required to get it resolved, but I agree would be great to get it working, I may well use it for my next project.

Thanks again

Steve
