    Hi,

    I tried all options for the popup map,
    when selecting (aerial) satellite image view the popup shows
    the hybrid map.

    For my purpose it would be nice to not have any streets rendered
    on the popup map!

    I tried to figure out where the problem is but actually I have no clue!

    My wished result would be to see the same map as in the widget view, no streets on popup, is this possible?

    Thanks!

    Unfortunately, Google now overlays satellite images with street names and other data basically making them hybrid maps (in the past this wasn’t so). At the moment, we don’t see a way to fix this problem as we can’t control the map’s content. Sorry ??

    Thanks for your quick reply,

    I was wondering if it was possible to show a similar map as in the one in the widget area, in the light box, I wouldn’t need a navigate able map!

    This map does not show any street layers, that would be perfect for my purpose. A plain aerial image so to say, I would try to make this changes my self, but unfortunately I have no clue where to start.

    Thanks!

    Thumbnail and lightbox don’t use the same API (at the moment) so to do anything like that would more/less mean writing a new plugin. The new version we’re working on will use a unified API so things like that will be possible. With a bit of luck, it’ll be out in 2 weeks.
