Hi Pamela,

I am trying to do the following in KML Parser example but it doesn't seem to
work. I couldn't see the image in place of default marker. If I try to do
the way it is there in your example then it works.Is there any difference in
both these ways of setting options? :

Moreover, I want to change the color of the image also( fill it with
different color), like we can do with the default marker. Is this possible?

                   *         var options:MarkerOptions = new
MarkerOptions();**
                          options.tooltip = placemark.name;

                          var markerStyle:Style = mapStyle(styleUrl);

                          var icon_href:String =
markerStyle.iconStyle.icon.href;
                          trace("***icon_href:"+ icon_href);

                          var request:URLRequest;
                          request = new URLRequest(icon_href);
                          var image2Loader:Loader = new Loader();

image2Loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,
function(event:Event):void {
                                               options.icon =
image2Loader;});
                          image2Loader.load(request);

                          //Setting fill style for icon
                          var fillStyle:FillStyle = new FillStyle();
                          var colObj:Object = new Object();
                          colObj = markerStyle.iconStyle.color;

                          fillStyle.color = int(colObj);
                          options.fillStyle = fillStyle;

                          obj.mapObject = new Marker(latlng,options);


obj.mapObject.addEventListener(MapMouseEvent.CLICK,
function(e:MapMouseEvent):void {

obj.mapObject.openInfoWindow(windowOptions);});

                          //Also tried this
                          //obj.mapObject.setOptions(options);*

Thanks,
Amit
