With the Directions button :
ArcGIS Earth 1.17 introduces a routing functionality. But using Directions requires to be connected to an ArcGIS Online organization. Some of us already added routing functionality to ArcGIS Earth through the use of the Automation API.
I suggest that the Directions button could be hidden when not connected to ArcGIS Online, and only be shown when a connection to an organization is made.
Thank you.
