When using the following code to add a Marker to an on page Google Map
var myMarker4 = new google.maps.Marker({ position: new google.maps.LatLng(53.53, -2.5), map: map, icon: '/_Content/images/light-pink-marker-map.png' });
Is there a way (call back?) for me to detect when the user has hovered over the marker so I can do something on the current page?
I have several markers, so I would need someway to uniquely identify each.
Isn't this what you're looking for?
var myMarker4 = new google.maps.Marker({ position: new google.maps.LatLng(53.53, -2.5), map: map, icon: '/_Content/images/light-pink-marker-map.png' });
google.maps.event.addListener(myMarker4, 'mouseover', function() {
doSomething...
});
By the way, here's the full list of events that a marker can handle:
'click'
'dblclick'
'mouseup'
'mousedown'
'mouseover'
'mouseout'

I have multiple markers on a map that I want the ability to pan between. The idea being that if you click Marker 1 it will pan to Marker 1 being centered, and then if you click Marker 2 it will pan from Marker 1 to Marker 2. I've got the pan to work fine initially, but it won't pan from one marker to another without the user moving the map first.
The current code I'm using is:
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function() {
map.panTo(marker.getPosition());
});
I'm thinking there might be something I'm unaware of when it comes to using multiple marker event listeners in a row (maybe? I'm not sure).
Here's the functioning example as I'm encountering it now:

Hopefully that's clear, let me know if you can help. Thanks!
There is only one marker variable in your code, left at the last marker created by the loop. The usual solution is to use function closure, associates a unique copy of the marker variable with each event listener.
for (var i = 0; i < locations.length; i++) {
var beach = locations[i];
var myLatLng = new google.maps.LatLng(beach[1], beach[2]);
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: myLatLng,
map: map,
//icon: image,
//shape: shape,
title: beach[0],
zIndex: beach[3]
});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', (function(marker) {
return function() {
map.panTo(marker.getPosition());
}
})(marker));
}
working example
in the following code generated an undetermined number of markers, this works well.
for(i=0;i<idr.length;i++){
var LatLng = new google.maps.LatLng(lat[i], lng[i]);
m[i] = new google.maps.Marker({
position: LatLng,
icon: image,
map: map,
draggable: false,
val: idr[i]
});
}
I want to get the properties of the corresponding marker when the mouse passes over this
This does not apply for you should create a function for each marker and can not be that many
This function only access the first marker
google.maps.event.addListener(m[0], "click", function(e) {
var latitud = e.latLng.lat();
alert(latitud);
});
use this inside the callback to get access to the current marker(m[i] will not work there, because it will always refer to the last created marker)
google.maps.event.addListener(m[i], 'mouseover', function() {
alert(this.val)
});
for(i=0;i<idr.length;i++){
var LatLng = new google.maps.LatLng(lat[i], lng[i]);
m[i] = new google.maps.Marker({
position: LatLng,
icon: image,
map: map,
draggable: false,
val: idr[i]
});
google.maps.event.addListener(m[i], 'mouseover', function() {
//Do stuff
});
}
The above is how I would do it.
I created a map using Google Fusion Tables, and have uploaded the map into an HTML document, which I am tweaking to make subtle changes in the appearance of the map. I figured out how to insert a draggable pin/marker that displays a street view of its current location on click, but I can't figure out how to change the appearance of the marker. Here is the code I have for the interactive streetview marker.
//street view pin
var contentString = '<div id="content" style="width:500px;height:400px;"></div>';
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
content: contentString
});
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: latlng,
map: map,
title: 'Click Here for Street View',
draggable: true
});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function() {
infowindow.open(map, marker);
});
var pano = null;
google.maps.event.addListener(infowindow, 'domready', function() {
if (pano != null) {
pano.unbind("position");
pano.setVisible(false); }
pano = new google.maps.StreetViewPanorama(document.getElementById("content"), {
navigationControl: true,
navigationControlOptions: {style: google.maps.NavigationControlStyle.ANDROID},
nableCloseButton: false,
addressControl: false,
linksControl: false
});
pano.bindTo("position", marker);
pano.setVisible(true);
});
google.maps.event.addListener(infowindow, 'closeclick', function() {
pano.unbind("position");
pano.setVisible(false);
pano = null;
});
I tried to tweak the lines 7-14, adding in a
icon: 'cross_hairs_highlight'
which is the style i want, but the icon disappears when I try to open the HTML document in a browser. There is still something there that I can still drag around and click on for StreetView, but it's invisible.
Any suggestions?
Your help is appreciated!!!

The value of icon is expected to be a URL, not the name of a fusionTable-icon (these icon-names may only be used for markers rendered within a fusionTableLayer).
You'll find a list of these icons (inspect the image-properties to retrieve the URL) at http://kml4earth.appspot.com/icons.html , so you may use e.g.:
icon:'http://maps.google.com/mapfiles/kml/pal3/icon52.png'
When you want the marker to be centered at the given position, you must also specify the anchor:
icon:{
url: 'http://maps.google.com/mapfiles/kml/pal3/icon52.png',
anchor: new google.maps.Point(16,16)
}
Can somebody please explain why my Google Maps info windows are only opening at the bottom left marker?
See here for the fiddle http://jsfiddle.net/Vj3nw/7/
When I click on any of the markers, only the bottom-left one is opened. I would like the marker that is clicked to open.
I believe the problem is due to the loop below, and this question seems to have the same problem Setting onclick to use current value of variable in loop
"The problem you were hitting is that javascript doesn't use block scope. Instead all variables have a lifetime of their containing function. So there was only ever one a captured in all of the onclick functions and they all see it's final value."
I just can't quite translate that solution to mine.
Many thanks.
for (var i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: flightPlanCoordinates[i],
icon: Symbol,
map: map
});
infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow();
infowindow.setContent("hello");
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function () {
infowindow.open(map, marker);
});
}
Generating your markers and adding the listeners in their own function, called from the loop like the updated fiddle works.
function create_marker(i,flightPlanCoordinates,Symbol,map){
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: flightPlanCoordinates[i],
icon: Symbol,
map: map
});
infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow();
infowindow.setContent("hello" + i);
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function() {
infowindow.open(map,marker);
});
}
I'm working with Google Maps v3 and I use the MarkerManager to hide the markers on a certain zoom level. I bind circle objects to these markers. Anyway, they aren't hided when the markers are. How can I bind the circles to hide with the markers?
The binding:
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: new google.maps.LatLng(lat,lng),
});
var circle = new google.maps.Circle({
map: map,
radius: 50,
});
circle.bindTo('center', marker, 'position');
Array.push(marker);
Did you solved your problem? If not add this:
circle.bindTo('map', marker);
