Playing around in 4.5.3 and I noticed that when you click on a building in Photorealistic view, it doesn’t tell you what the building is or its height like in the terrain view set to Enhanced. I realize that in Photorealistic view you can see what the building looks like and I know the names of the buildings in my city, but it would be nice to see that info in Photorealistic mode too.
Hi Ron – not really possible at this time, unfortunately. The Google mesh is a single thing, buildings and ground fused together. To identify a building I’d need a server-side building search service which doesn’t currently exist or to try to load the other buildings data in memory which would be too much performance-wise. Maybe in the future…
Ok no problem, I can always get the info in the terrain view
