1 Google Maps Enigma2 Client FAQ
4 How to get own Placemarks into the List at Plugin Start?
6 You can put your own KML-File in the Root Dir of the Plugin. This is in most
7 cases /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/GoogleMaps/
10 How the Plugin will find my custom KML-File?
12 The Plugin looks at Startup in his own Dir and will try to read and to display
13 all Files that are ending with the Extension .kml .
16 How to get a KML-File?
18 The Plugin uses the same KML-Files as Google Earth does it. So, if you have
19 your Collection of custom Placemarks in Google Earth for Example, export them
20 into a File in the Format KMZ. Rename this exported KMZ file to xxzzyy.kmz.zip
21 and extract it. You will find a KML-File that will contain your Placemarks.
24 Why are there so much more Tags in the original KML-File from Google Earth than
25 in the standart KML-Files of the Plugin are?
27 This is because parsing unneeded Stuff costs Time we dont have :) To Speeding
28 up the Start of the Plugin, we have kicked of all unneeded Stuff from the
29 standart KML-Files. But a original KML from Google Earth has to work too, but
33 Which Tags are important for this Plugin?
35 This is an example of a KML-Docoment :
36 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
37 <kml xmlns="http://earth.google.com/kml/2.2">
40 <name>This is the Entry which will be shown in the Plugin Root List</name>
42 <name>This is the Name of a Placemark</name>
44 <longitude>13.3501</longitude>
45 <latitude>52.514553</latitude>
53 What I am doing, if i want some Placemarks be added to the standart Plugin
56 Just send me a email to 3c5x9%at%gmx.net .
