KML <heading> not supported in Google Maps #418

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What is the full URL of the page with the documentation error?
http://code.google.com/apis/kml/documentation/kmlelementsinmaps.html

What is the URL of any downloadable example of this error?
http://trainspotting.intraffic.nl/test.kml

Please provide a short description of the documentation error:
It is stated that Google Maps supports the heading element in KML documents. 
However, if I enter the url of this KML file in the search bar of 
http://maps.google.com, the icon is shown pointing north. Heading seems to be 
ignored. In Google Earth it works correctly, with the icon pointing south east.
