Hello

I am using the Google Earth API and the Google Earth Plugin to play KML tours. The KML tours pop up and display balloons occasionally. In my Javascript code I used to catch the balloonopening event to know when a balloon is popping up within the tour. I am registered for the balloonopening event:

google.earth.addEventListener(ge, 'balloonopening', onBalloonOpening);

All this worked until I updated my Google Earth Plugin to 6.2.0.5905 (API version 1.009, OS: Windows 7). With this version, no balloonopening event arrives when a balloon is opening in the KML tour. (The balloonopening event only arrives if I exit the tour and click on the placemark.)

What is the reason why the balloonopening event stops firing within a KML tour?
What is the way to notice when a balloon is opening within a KML tour?

Thank for any help in advance!
Richie.

I think this issue is closely related to this thread.

Hi Richie,

You're correct that these are related. Please see my response in the
other thread.

Cheers,
