I need to customize the navigation bar in my embedded bing map.

    You cannot easily change the style of the built-in v7 navigation bar – it’s not designed to be customised, doesn’t have appropriate id/classes assigned to elements, and the structure is liable to change without warning between releases.

    Instead, the most reliable option is to disable the built-in v7 navigation bar completely (by initialising the map with showDashboard: false), and then construct your own navbar div that mimics the style of the v6 dashboard and place this on top of the map using CSS positioning.
