Google Maps, Dynamic Image

Hey Guys,

Right now I have a scatter chart object for a google map set up with the frame background set to dynamic image like the example found in the community.

The problem is the image in qv won't show without the .jpg (or gif/png) at the end or at least I wasn't able to get it to work without it. Then with google if there is a .jpg at the end the map type is set to roadmap no matter what you set. Of course we can layer objects like other google map examples and it works but I would rather it be one object.

Another problem is the resolution is reduced; it isn't as crisp when you use one object as it is when you have two.

My image is set to:

='http://maps.google.com/staticmap?center='
&
num(var_mid_lat, '##############', '.', ',' )
&
','
&
num(var_mid_long, '##############', '.', ',' )
&
'&zoom=$(var_zoom)'
&
'&size='&map_size_x&'x'&map_size_y
&
'&key='&gmap_key
&
'&maptype='&var_maptype
& '.jpg'
