Thank you Marcelo that certainly helped me a little further - while this is working the first-time when I click on the marker, it fails the following times.
this is what I do when I click on a marker - move the map with the marker to the NW location with an offset of 50px; before moving the map, I save the position. then I get the marker position like this: var pos = this.map.fromLatLngToDivPixel(marker.getLatLng()); the first-time it returns 50 for x and y. the click also opens then a custom info window - that works fine the first-time as well. closing the info-window restores the map to its previous location. clicking on the marker again, this var pos = this.map.fromLatLngToDivPixel(marker.getLatLng()); now returns some weird negative values and I have no idea why?! Any ideas - Am I missing something here?
