What is a vasquette? - google-maps

I've noticed in Google Maps that something is named "vasquette" (and it appears to be the buttons in the top-right)... but what does the name actually mean and where does it come from? Does anyone know?
All I can find is a couple of tickets that reference it.

AppScript. Is there a way to check if list item has a checkbox?

Google document allows to add list items with a checkboxes, like on the screenshot below:
I need to write a appscript to check if list item has a checbox, but i haven't found appropriate field/method in documentation and this kind of list item return null instead of GlyphType:
Does anyone know if it is actually possible somehow?
This isn't currently possible!
But there is already a report on Google's Issue Tracker which requests the behaviour you seek:
Add support for all glyph types in Docs (bullets and number formats)
Google does seem to know about this feature request but if it's causing problems I suggest leaving a comment to bump its priority.
You can also hit the ☆ next to the issue number in the top left on the aforementioned pages which lets Google know more people would like to see this implemented.

Google Maps Autocomplete - street number disappears

I am using the Google Maps API autocomplete. When I type in an address, I get suggestions. Valid results are bold, but invalid results are not. So, I might get an item in the drop down where the street name is bold, but the number is not:
So, if the users chooses 829 Wakely Terrace, I call getPlace and populate my address fields. But since its not a valid number, it looks like the number get stripped out. This is a confusing experience.
Can I force autocomplete to not do this?
Concersely, do I need some kind of "Did you mean this address?" functionality? Can anyone point me to an example of where this is handled well (Not for code, but UX purposes)?
I have a sort of answer. We were using the autocomplete widget from Google. Is till find it weird the whole bold/not bold thing, but if you use the AutocompleteService, you get the raw suggestions as JSON from Google. So, you need to do some more work to make the front end work, but you have a lot more control and con handle the situation as you see fit.

Google Apps Script doesn't show the methods when coding

Firstly, let me say that I am Spanish so my English is not so good, so please be patient if you find it difficult to understand what I am to say.
Having said that, the problem I have when using Google Apps Script is that the kind of window that is being opened when coding isn't work.
For instance: If I type.... var doc = documentapp. nothing happens, that is, the kind of windows that shows the different methods doesn't even try to open, nothing happens
To help you understand the problem I have, I attached a picture with "what should happen" when coding...
I am in despair.. I don't know what is happening.
If you see the picture, when docfile. is typed a windows is open with different methods, like GetEditors and so on..
Well, that the problem I have, that doesn't happen to me when typing code.
Google Apps Script doesn't show the methods when coding
This is an auxiliary feature indicating you that something is not correct in your code
In your particular case: You misspelled DocumentApp (case sensitivity is important in Apps Script, so documentapp is wrong)
After you fix the typing mistake, the methods will be shown correctly after the . - unless you have some other mistake somewhere else in your code

google.maps.places.Autocomplete does not return some correct establishment addresses

The Google places (google.maps.places.Autocomplete) class that is available to use by linking an input box into a drop down list to display addresses from is causing me trouble when searching for establishments
I can generate this issue on the Google example page as well at:
google places example
I use this feature in my code much like the example above by including a reference to the places API:
<script src="//maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false&libraries=places"
type="text/javascript"></script>
The problem seems to be mainly around [Establishments]. But not just any establishments. It only occurs on some now and again.
The one I have particular issue with at the moment is when I type in the Name United campervan rentals, and select the resulting drop-down. The address that is returned in the autocomplete.getPlace() command is not address I would expect. The address returned is the middle of the bounds set when creating the autocomplete object.
However as per maps.google.co.nz, I an expecting an address of 3 Kingsford Smith Place.
I've tried it in a number of browsers including IE 8, 9, Chrome, FF 3.6. All produce the same result. I've also tried at different times of the day and the same result.
I had posted this on the Google API forum but read an article that they are moving their Q&A to SO, so as long as I add the appropriate tags someone may be able to offer some sort of insight. I'm really hoping this is the case. Cheers.
For anyone who reads this I logged an issue on the gmaps API issue site and after a few days the issue was cleared as fixed. This also resolved the question.
