Hi All, I'm really new to this (yesterday) and I've followed a tutorial. I'm just wondering if there is a simple way to make letters or numbers appear over my pins? I have a list of suppliers and want to indicate them on the map with a letter or number. with the address when you click the pin.
I'm think along the lines of a string in the marker options? - heres my code. Please can you help Rebecca //Google Map// import com.google.maps.LatLng; import com.google.maps.Map; import com.google.maps.MapEvent; import com.google.maps.MapType; import com.google.maps.controls.ZoomControl; import com.google.maps.controls.PositionControl; import com.google.maps.controls.MapTypeControl; import com.google.maps.overlays.MarkerOptions; import com.google.maps.overlays.Marker; import com.google.maps.InfoWindowOptions; import com.google.maps.MapMouseEvent; import com.google.maps.styles.FillStyle; import com.google.maps.styles.StrokeStyle; // Create The Map var map:Map = new Map(); map.key = "ABQIAAAAHnTxrW35iwO7TUyb5DVSlRQxwGfbL6iJ0RFbppF_-QJlM0HZohRurIf7OmFH21CL0s2xiRXkLddrmA"; map.setSize(new Point(275, 300)); map.x = 450; map.y = 25; map.addEventListener(MapEvent.MAP_READY, onMapReady); this.addChild(map); function onMapReady(event:MapEvent):void { map.setCenter(new LatLng(53.595024,-2.297151), 9, MapType.NORMAL_MAP_TYPE); map.addControl(new ZoomControl()); map.addControl(new PositionControl()); map.addControl(new MapTypeControl()); xmlLoader(); } function xmlLoader(){ function loadXML(e:Event):void{ XML.ignoreWhitespace = true; var map_xml:XML = new XML(e.target.data); for (var i:Number = 0; i < map_xml.location.length(); i++){ var latlng:LatLng = new LatLng(map_xml.location[i].lat, map_xml.location[i].lon); var tip = map_xml.location[i].name_tip; var myTitle:String = map_xml.location[i].title_tip; var myContent:String = map_xml.location[i].content_tip; map.addOverlay(createMarker(latlng,i, tip, myTitle, myContent)); }// end of for loop // Add Markers On The Map function createMarker(latlng:LatLng, number:Number, tip, myTitle, myContent):Marker { var i:Marker = new Marker( latlng, new MarkerOptions({ strokeStyle: new StrokeStyle({color: 0x8700af}), fillStyle: new FillStyle({color: 0x5f875f, alpha: 0.8}), hasShadow: true, tooltip: ""+tip }) ); i.addEventListener(MapMouseEvent.CLICK, function(event:MapMouseEvent):void { map.openInfoWindow(event.latLng, new InfoWindowOptions({ titleHTML: ""+myTitle, contentHTML: ""+myContent })); }); return i; }// end function createMarker }// end of loadXML function var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadXML); xmlLoader.load(new URLRequest("xml.xml")); } -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API For Flash" group.
