Is there any method to see the kml of a Google Earth project - maps

I have a Google Earth project which contains a customized map. I wish to open the map in android studio but that requires me to use the kml file of the map. How can I get it?

It sounds like you're working in the "new" version of Google Earth on the web/browser (not the Earth Pro desktop version). If so, when you have your project open, click the 3-dot menu at the top of the projects panel, and you should see an option to "Export as KML file".

Using the webBrowser control to show google map directions

I'm using google maps to show directions inside a web browser control, and suddenly my windows xp users are reporting there is no longer a line following the roads. Also, it draws a shaded shape on the map (showing a territory) and this no longer works. Did google change something? Can I still support this?

Aspose PDF viewer

I am using the Aspose PDF tools and have successfully got it to print the pdf which is great, but ideally I want to be able to add a wpf control to display this as well.
I would have assumed that the PdfViewer class would have something, but I can't tell.
So far I have needed to use a different control MoonPdfPanel which is annoying as I would have preferred 1 tool to do both jobs.
Does anyone know of a control I can use to hook into the aspose?
Thanks
We have developed an HTML5 PDF Editor application using Aspose.Pdf for .NET API which you can use in your application as a PDF Viewer as well. You can get the details and complete source code here. You can use the source code to edit the viewer as per your requirement.
P.S. I am working as social media developer at Aspose.
Well, if you are interesting in viewing the PDF file, you may convert the file to HTML and display it using an IFrame in your application. I have developed a sample application which performs different operations including viewing a PDF file in IFrame. Download it and try it at your end. Another option is that you can convert the PDF file to images and display in Imageviewer in your application (Code is available in the above application).

How to open photo from Photo hub with 3rd party apps using edit link in Silverlight 8.1 app

Prior to Windows Phone 8.1 version we have abilty to open picture from picture hub using App Connect from Picture Hub (apps... link when open specific picture in picture viewer).
How to open picture from 3rd party app in WP 8.1 Silverlight app?
I upgrade project to Silverlight 8.1 but I don't get my app in a list with edit options.
Anyone?
In order to register for Edit picker, your app needs to declare the following extension in WMAppManifest
<Extension ExtensionName="Photos_Extra_Image_Editor"
ConsumerID="{5B04B775-356B-4AA0-AAF8-6491FFEA5632}"
TaskID="_default" />
More info can be found on MSDN.
I had a similar but not exactly the same problem. I made an app for wp8 silverlight. The app appeared in the edit list for photos or images.
When I upgraded the project to wp81 my app appeared in the edit list but it wasn't called. It just happend nothing.
I found this comment on social.msdn.microoft.com:
"After updating to the new developer preview (8.10.14147.180) this problem is gone on my phone. It is of course still there in my emulator since it isn't updated (8.10.12358.1191). So the question now is when I can release the WP8.1 specific version of my app, since this functionality is a rather central part of it..."
and I can confirm this.
On my emulator it does not work (OS Version 8.10.12358.1191) but on my device (OS Version 8.10.14147.180) it works.

Simple integration of Bing Maps into WPF application page

How would I go about integrating Bing Maps into a page or frame in my WPF application? I have found a lot of resources for Bing Maps development, but I don't need to develop with Bing Maps, just add the actual thing into my application without hyper-linking out to the website.
Windows 8 applications do this with "contracts" with other metro apps but I do not see a similar functionality with WPF applications.
Thank you!
Just go here and download the control :)
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh750210.aspx
The control is in the "Bing Maps WPF Control SDK"
If i remember correctly you will need to register for an api key.
UPDATE:
to get the api key you have to register here https://www.bingmapsportal.com/
This was a lot easier than I expected, #Tjofras had a correct answer but here is some more elaboration:
1) Get a Bing Maps developer key for free here - https://www.bingmapsportal.com/
There is a trial version that gives you all the features, but for a limited time and there is a basic version that is free but has limited features.
2) Create a project in Visual Studio for Desktop
3) Check out this article for step-by-step instructions and the exact lines of code to integrate it into your project.
This line goes at the top of your MainWindow.xaml page :
xmlns:m="clr-namespace:Microsoft.Maps.MapControl.WPF;assembly=Microsoft.Maps.MapControl.WPF"
Add the map into your existing grid with your developer key, initial latitude and longitude values, and an initial zoom level with the tags:
m:Map object
CredentialsProvider tag (your developer license code)
Center tag (initial latitude and longtitude)
ZoomLevel tag (how zoomed in you are)
Browse the API's and make your application awesome!

Demo Glassware via screenshare

I have built a demo application that I want to demo to a room of people. How do I go about sharing my google glass screen with the audience? I saw that in Google I/O, engineers were using something to share their screen with the audience, how do I get that?
The MyGlass Android app has a feature called "screencast" - if, for example, you set up a Nexus 10 with MyGlass, you can then use the mini-HDMI out to project the screencast to a large audience (I'm not sure how you'd hook other Android devices up to a projects, but I know this Nexus 10 method works).
You can find the screencast function at the bottom of the main drop-down menu in the MyGlass home screen.
I would turn debug mode to "on" in my Glass settings and then use Android Screencast to display the view from Glass on my computer screen. From there I could use a projector or external monitor for demoing purposes.
There is also a cool jar that I found called droidAtScreen which uses ADB to render whats showing on the glass onto a GUI; no setup required, easy to use.
