[mapguide-users] Adding OpenLayers.Layer to Fusion Map

[Mark Pendergraft]

I wasn't adding the layer switcher to my map because I had hoped to add
the layers in the Legend Widget.  When I add the LayerSwitcher Google
layers show up, but they are zoomed to the extent of the entire map (aka
entire world).
I would pursue setting them at the correct extents, but Paul informs me
that Fusion 2.0 Beta will be arriving shortly with support for any
OpenLayers Layer type.  I have a lot of work to do on my Fusion map in
the meantime so I'll put this off until the Beta comes out.
Thanks for your help.

your going to need to dive into the whole projection and OL spherical
mercator stuff

I'm prety sure the google layers will be added as what's called a base
layer in OL which means
they won't be displayed by default

does the layer switcher show up?
