Google Maps Extension - OnMarkerClick event

Hi Guys,

I'm busy testing the Google Maps Extension and I must say you did an awesome job. I like the dynamic options :)

If I place the Google Maps extension control in a window or if I open a file in the designer that contains a Google Maps extension then I get an unhandled exception (picture). I just click cancel and everything works fine and the map is displayed in the designer.

=> It would be nice to have an OnMarkerClick() event that returns the marker ID to e.g. then use the  ShowInfoWindow() to display details of the location.

=> Are there any plans to extend the functionality to include drawing elements (polygon, poly-lines, ...)?

Best Regards
Rudy

The event is MapClick and MapDoubleClick. When clicking on a marker the args.Marker property will have the marker ID.

You can add the polygon drawing to the source code published here http://wisej.com/extensions. It's quite easy to add a function in startup.js and the mapping in C#. See CenterMap() and AddMarker() as examples. Let me know if you add functionality to the extension and we can publish your additions.

I will also add some polygon examples in the next few days.

Best,

Luca

Forgot to add a cool thing, you can use https://snazzymaps.com/  copy and paste the style definition in the options editor using "styles": [...] and you can get any of the styles working very easily.
