Problem display Pegman into map inside StreetView

[Gigi]

Hi,
for my application I use a code similar to this written by Mark Ridey
in his blog http://blog.mridey.com/2010/11/how-to-display-map-inside-streetview.html
If I use
<script src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false"
type="text/javascript"></script>
the Pegman not dispaly into Map

But If i set the version
<script src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?v=3.3&sensor=false"
type="text/javascript"></script>
It's function.
This is a map api issue?

Thanks
Gigi

It is not there because you are using OSM as your map type. When you switch to RoadMap or Satellite the pegman shows.

Fair enough. Although it previously worked without choosing the google

Hi Luke,
sorry but I have implemented this code

function initialize() {
var panorama = new
google.maps.StreetViewPanorama(document.getElementById("pano"), {
position: new google.maps.LatLng(42.345573,-71.098326),
visible: true
});
var map = new
google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), {
center: new google.maps.LatLng(42.345573,-71.098326),
zoom: 14,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP,
mapTypeControl: false,
streetViewControl: false,
zoomControl: false,
streetView: panorama
});

google.maps.event.addListener(panorama, "position_changed",
function() {
map.setCenter(panorama.getPosition());
});
}

and the mapTypeId is ROADMAP but if i use http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false
i don't display a pegman into map.
Can you help me?

Thanks
Gigi

Hey Luke,
Is there a way to force this behaviour? i.e Force Pegman showing in
custom map types?

There is an issue filed here:
http://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=3189

Please star this issue.

After some reading I believe this is a bug introduced by fixing issue
3154 http://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=3154.
Although the default UI probably should not show the streetviewContorl
when displaying moon as in here:
http://code.google.com/intl/es-ES/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/maptype-image.html,
there are plenty of customized map types that happen to be in web
mercator projection on earth and lines up with streetview layer
perfectly and would love to have street view available.
So I think a comprise to solve both issue 3154 and this new issue of
3189 http://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=3189
is to allow developers force streetviewControl in mapOptions. Some
tweaks in defaultUI logic is necessary but doable because javascript
treat undefined, null and false differently.
