Disabling Mouse Controls in Google Earth

[Killer]

Hello.

I have a question about how to disable mouse clicks in Google Earth.
I've searched high and low and haven't been able to un-earth (pun,
yes) the answer.

I'm using Adobe Flex to load Google Earth for a Kiosk. I've programmed
buttons to manipulate the Earth, and want to disable mouse clicks on
the Earth so people can't zoom or pan from the Earth.

Here's the kiosk I'm working on:

Here's a link to the .mxml, and to the .js files. (Forgive me if the
code is a bit messy ... I'm new at this, am learning and cobbling
things together and plan to clean it up after I've conquered some of
the basic functionality.)

I appreciate your thoughts,

Hi,
I feel entirely vindicated now, I asked the same thing about two weeks
ago having come up with similar results to the same question.
See this thread:

Short answer:
ge.getOptions()..setMouseNavigationEnabled(false);

There it is,,. thanks for not chastising me for duplicating a posted
question.

I appreciate you pointing me in the right direction.

Cheers.
