JEB Posted January 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2013 Hi Eric,Thanks for your reply. Perhaps I have not made myself clear. It is the animated fly through that I wish to capture.John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JEB Posted January 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2013 Eric,I have just managed to capture a test clip using QuickTime, which is built into MountainLion. This looks like it will serve my purpose.I would have used this animated fly through in the past but wasn't aware of the fact that it existed, perhaps it is a new feature of Google Maps.Thanks for your interest.RegardsJohn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
