How do you order the markers in a static map? I have a marker which I'd like to always be on top, but I can't find a way to achieve this.
I thought it was by the order of the parameters, but the z order appears to be independent of this: e.g. http://maps.google.com/maps/api/staticmap?size=512x512&maptype=roadmap&sensor=false&markers=color:green|label:G|40.711524,-74.012318|40.711524,-74.012418&markers=icon:http://chart.apis.google.com/chart%3Fchst%3Dd_map_pin_icon%26chld%3Dcafe%257C996600|shadow:false|40.711614,-74.0124 is the same as http://maps.google.com/maps/api/staticmap?size=512x512&maptype=roadmap&sensor=false&markers=icon:http://chart.apis.google.com/chart%3Fchst%3Dd_map_pin_icon%26chld%3Dcafe%257C996600|shadow:false|40.711614,-74.0124&markers=color:green|label:G|40.711524,-74.012318|40.711524,-74.012418 However http://maps.google.com/maps/api/staticmap?size=512x512&maptype=roadmap&sensor=false&markers=icon:http://chart.apis.google.com/chart%3Fchst%3Dd_map_pin_icon%26chld%3Dcafe%257C996600|40.711614,-74.0124&markers=color:green|label:G|40.711614,-74.012318|40.712614,-74.012418 is different to http://maps.google.com/maps/api/staticmap?size=512x512&maptype=roadmap&sensor=false&markers=color:green|label:G|40.711614,-74.012318|40.712614,-74.012418&markers=icon:http://chart.apis.google.com/chart%3Fchst%3Dd_map_pin_icon%26chld%3Dcafe%257C996600|40.711614,-74.0124 It seems to make no difference using custom or standard icons, e.g. http://maps.google.com/maps/api/staticmap?size=512x512&maptype=roadmap&sensor=false&markers=icon:http://chart.apis.google.com/chart%3Fchst%3Dd_map_pin_icon%26chld%3Dski%257C996600|40.711524,-74.012318|40.711524,-74.012418&markers=icon:http://chart.apis.google.com/chart%3Fchst%3Dd_map_pin_icon%26chld%3Dcafe%257C996600|shadow:false|40.711614,-74.0124 is the same as http://maps.google.com/maps/api/staticmap?size=512x512&maptype=roadmap&sensor=false&markers=icon:http://chart.apis.google.com/chart%3Fchst%3Dd_map_pin_icon%26chld%3Dcafe%257C996600|shadow:false|40.711614,-74.0124&markers=icon:http://chart.apis.google.com/chart%3Fchst%3Dd_map_pin_icon%26chld%3Dski%257C996600|40.711524,-74.012318|40.711524,-74.012418 but http://maps.google.com/maps/api/staticmap?size=512x512&maptype=roadmap&sensor=false&markers=icon:http://chart.apis.google.com/chart%3Fchst%3Dd_map_pin_icon%26chld%3Dski%257C996600|40.711614,-74.012318|40.712614,-74.012418&markers=icon:http://chart.apis.google.com/chart%3Fchst%3Dd_map_pin_icon%26chld%3Dcafe%257C996600|40.711614,-74.0124 is different to http://maps.google.com/maps/api/staticmap?size=512x512&maptype=roadmap&sensor=false&markers=icon:http://chart.apis.google.com/chart%3Fchst%3Dd_map_pin_icon%26chld%3Dcafe%257C996600|40.711614,-74.0124&markers=icon:http://chart.apis.google.com/chart%3Fchst%3Dd_map_pin_icon%26chld%3Dski%257C996600|40.711614,-74.012318|40.712614,-74.012418 Is there any way to enforce z-order?
