    Default Google maps - not this again

    Hi

    Been a while since I designed a site. The Google maps widget apparently does not work. Gives a weird error message with instructions, but those dont work either.

    Tried just making a map and sticking the code into a placeholder. Just gave me a line of code.

    How do I embed a Google map in Xara Designer Pro please. Urgent.

    Thanks.

    Ali

    Perhaps you can explain what others may have to face?

    I ignored the non-working widget.

    Found map in google maps. From left hand menu selected the Embed option. Copied and pasted that code into the HTML BODY of a placeholder in Xara. Changed the iframe dimensions code to have the dimensions I wanted from the published map.
