Yes, you can display Google maps with the lightbox feature! It's really easy and you can find several samples in the documentation.

Don't think you can add text to the map using this feature but you can set a pin to your location, text possible with a google account..

As tschortsch mentioned, you can open Google map links nicely in a lightbox, but you cannot embed them directly into a textpage.

check the demo here:
https://www.photo.gallery/demo/x2/#/about/
(click the "Map" link in the text)

Optionally, you can open the map from a link in the main menu. It is explained here:

(scroll down to "Open a Google Map")

You cannot add Google Maps like that, because Flash TEXTFIELDS are for TEXT ONLY ... You cannot display iframes or dynamic maps or any other advanced HTML. Although the map works and is visible in the editor, this does not mean the Flash textfields (in Imagevue) are able to show it ... Sorry.

You need to open map in a lightbox, either from a text link or from a menu item.
