Hi Andrew, I need the double click functionality too (for the polylines but it's the same discussion). I thought of the scheme you suggested too and tried to implement it but it does not seem to work. What happens is, in the first click it is possible to catch the click on the polygon and get the time and location of the click. But if the user clicks again and it is (rightly) interpreted as a double click. The second click event is not fired on the polygon (or polyline) because now the event is a double click, which means the double click event is created and is handled by the map (which zooms in in my case).
Weirdly as the polyline handles the first click and there is no way to know if that's a single click or double click on the polyline level, my polyline responds to the click event and the map responds to the double click event which results in an infowindow being displayed (in my case) on the polyline and map zooming in. Am I missing sth? Is there any other simple way to implement double click on the polylines and also to get rid of the weird behaviour I described?
