    copied!<p>It looks like KMLViewer can only handle one <code>LineString</code> object per <code>Placemark</code>.</p> <p>For the route you tried, Google is returning two LineString objects in the "Route" Placemark (the last one in the file). KMLViewer only displays the second (last) LineString segment.</p> <p>Aside from updating the KMLViewer code to add support for multiple LineString objects per Placemark (which looks like a good exercise), you can try these two workarounds:</p> <p>Combine the coordinates from the two LineString objects into one LineString. Change:</p> <pre><code>&lt;Placemark&gt; &lt;name&gt;Route&lt;/name&gt; &lt;description&gt;some cdata stuff here&lt;/description&gt; &lt;GeometryCollection&gt; &lt;LineString&gt;&lt;coordinates&gt;coord1 … coordN&lt;/coordinates&gt;&lt;/LineString&gt; &lt;LineString&gt;&lt;coordinates&gt;coordN+1 … coordK&lt;/coordinates&gt;&lt;/LineString&gt; &lt;/GeometryCollection&gt; &lt;styleUrl&gt;#roadStyle&lt;/styleUrl&gt; &lt;/Placemark&gt; </code></pre> <p>To this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;Placemark&gt; &lt;name&gt;Route&lt;/name&gt; &lt;description&gt;some cdata stuff here&lt;/description&gt; &lt;GeometryCollection&gt; &lt;LineString&gt;&lt;coordinates&gt;coord1 … coordN coordN+1 … coordK&lt;/coordinates&gt;&lt;/LineString&gt; &lt;/GeometryCollection&gt; &lt;styleUrl&gt;#roadStyle&lt;/styleUrl&gt; &lt;/Placemark&gt; </code></pre> <p>The above might only make sense for routes (line segments) that are supposed to be continuous.</p> <p>Another workaround is to split the "Route" Placemark into multiple placemarks (one for each LineString):</p> <pre><code>&lt;Placemark&gt; &lt;name&gt;Route A&lt;/name&gt; &lt;description&gt;some cdata stuff here&lt;/description&gt; &lt;GeometryCollection&gt; &lt;LineString&gt;&lt;coordinates&gt;coord1 … coordN&lt;/coordinates&gt;&lt;/LineString&gt; &lt;/GeometryCollection&gt; &lt;styleUrl&gt;#roadStyle&lt;/styleUrl&gt; &lt;/Placemark&gt; &lt;Placemark&gt; &lt;name&gt;Route B&lt;/name&gt; &lt;description&gt;some cdata stuff here&lt;/description&gt; &lt;GeometryCollection&gt; &lt;LineString&gt;&lt;coordinates&gt;coordN+1 … coordK&lt;/coordinates&gt;&lt;/LineString&gt; &lt;/GeometryCollection&gt; &lt;styleUrl&gt;#roadStyle&lt;/styleUrl&gt; &lt;/Placemark&gt; </code></pre> <p>One issue with this is that the "description" which contains distance and time info will not match the split routes.</p>
