6.0.0 and Custom controls

[n0ne]

Hi everyone.
How to create one small button with two states and one onClick event?
I have no idea...Are there some examples or tuts?
It'll be great...
Thank you!

Have you seen these demos: https://tomchentw.github.io/react-google-maps/ ?

Yees....why are you asking? I don't see any buttons on this map...

I believe you can either use an OverlayView, or try something like this: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/control-custom.

@n0ne I was wondering the exact same thing.

It seems however that we are out of lack. Peeking at the SearchBox code, I see hints everywhere that it's customly designed for maps usage (google maps specific controlPosition prop) and as such no plain react component can be used.

Any thoughts on that @tomchentw ?

or even a workaround for such a common scenario?

Thanks.

@kstratis Were you able to find a solution to this / workaround? I am trying to add a legend on the map, similar to adding controls

[kstratis]

@jm90m None I'm afraid...

@kstratis Oh ok thanks for the reply
