Drag & Move feature for imported polygon (as a whole layer) of kml file

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Many a times we import polygon shapes like boundaries of administrative units 
into GE from ArcGIS through a kml file.Recently, I found that while importing, 
something went wrong and the places were shown in the middle of Pacific Ocean 
though the relative shape was intact. A feature where the polygons are 
temporarily de-linked from geographical location keeping their relative 
position intact; moving them to desired new location as a whole layer and then 
again locking at desired geographical location would be excellent. Here, any 
particular point in the kml layer may be allowed to be reassigned with new 
latitude and longitude so that the entire layer moves keeping the relative 
shape intact.

Thanking you,

Great program!  Circles, Squares, Triangles you name it...you can create them 
easily and import them into GE

Thanks a lot dear for your reply. However, I want something else. After 
importing a kml layer with administrative boundaries into GE, I am finding that 
they are a little out of place sometimes. GE is not offering any scope now to 
move the imported kml layer. I want a feature that would allow me to drag and 
move a kml layer over the GE surface. It may be either a tool or an option of 
changing the lat, long of various points of polygon at one go (Say, one polygon 
has 500 points. I would change lat, long of one point and the corresponding 
change would take place automatically in other 499 points so that the whole 
polygon shifts over the surface of earth in GE without disturbing their 
relative position!). Thanking you,

Tanmay
