Allow retina icons (optional, secondary?)
Now possible with 3.8+ default is optimized=true

Optimized=true is not an option we can use, it causes issues with lots of markers.

We can use https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/reference/marker#Icon.scaledSize

@kprajapatii i think our options are either add a second input for retina or ask for 2x image.
what do u think?

[alexrollin]

fwiw I recommend a second input if only for the sake of variety

[Stiofan]

Its not something we really want to "vary"... mo options, mo problems

To use Icon.scaledSize option which size will be perfect? Is it fixed size or calculated from icon size dimensions?

[Stiofan]

You need to set a specific size. So, maybe the way to do it is if the height is above a certain size then we devide it in half? We already provide the icon sizes in the api response, so either we set a flag r=true (rentina=true) or we just do if height>30px devide height and width in half and pass that to Icon.scaledSize. thoughts?
