Do you have the original points you used to make that map? Probably GPS coordinates. If so, you can just go to http://maps.google.com, and search for "point A to point B to point C to point D, etc...". Then use that link.

EDIT: I just rewrote it for you: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=235632

Good morning, in my maps I see the little symbol of Street View just above the zoom button and I can not zoom; why this problem?

I just noticed this today as well. I'm using IE8, I haven't confirmed if it's in other browsers. But the Street View icon is preventing the Zoom function from working.

EDIT: On further investigation, if you USE the street view and then exit out of it, you get a better user interface, as shown in my additional attachments. You can then utilize the zoom. But it's that first initial step that's causing the problem.
