Hi,

I would like to be able to localize the bing maps provider. How would I set the culture of the map so that the countries are in say French?

I currently have the map tools translated but the actual map is not?

Looking on the bing website, I can see that one can pass a culture token to the bing servers however I cannot see how to do this with the telerik provider.

Am thinking of creating a custom provider that looks at bing but passes the current thread culture to it as part of the request string. 

Any thoughts?

Hello Dan,

You can use Language property of the RadMap control for this purpose. For example:

<telerik:RadMap Name="radMap" Language="fr-FR">
</telerik:RadMap>
