This sample shows how to use the BasemapGallery widget to update the map's basemap. This widget allows you to define a collection of basemaps to display in a default gallery or you can define a custom user interface. In this sample we add the Bing Maps basemaps to the basemap gallery.
var basemaps = [];Once the basemaps are added to the basemap gallery widget a custom menu is built to display the three basemaps from the gallery: Roads, Aerial and Aerial with Labels.
