Hi, This question has been asked a lot of times already on the google map v3 group. The point is that you can't change the icons of the waypoints of a route (as far as I have seen). Since the word "can't" does not exist in software, I'll try to give you a solution.
The starting point is my http://www.grasoft.be/mtb/gmap/directions01.htmpage where a route is calculated based on 4 points, one start, one stop and two intermediate points. My first thinking was that I could create extra new waypoint markers on top of those of the route. This seem to work fine except that you see those new points only shortly and even then maybe after a refresh of the page. The icons on http://www.grasoft.be/mtb/gmap/directions02a.htm are the default icons see your letters are not included yet. I slightly modified http://www.grasoft.be/mtb/gmap/directions02a.htm into http://www.grasoft.be/mtb/gmap/directions02b.htm where the difference is that in 02b I disabled the "map" attribute of the DirectionsRenderer (with a setMap ()). This means that the route is not drawn anymore BUT the directions text is still visible (on the right side of the screen). The extra waypoint markers are shown. The point/trick with the DirectionsService is that it returns the "response" on calling the route method DirectionsService. This response contains very detailed information about the "route" call. I'll work with this "response" to get what you what. In http://www.grasoft.be/mtb/gmap/directions03.htm you can read that I walk thru the "steps" of the calculated route to draw a polyline myself (a red one). I also include the colored markers you want. With this method, it is not possible anymore the to click in the directions panel (you can click in it but nothing happens anymore). I also do the trick with the setMap described earlier. You see that the maps zoom factor and center is not ok. I think this has to do with the drawing of the polyline. I created http://www.grasoft.be/mtb/gmap/directions04.htm to solve the zoom and center problem. The trick is to create a "bounds" object with everything in it and than executing a fitBounds and setCenter. kind regards from Belgium, Ronny Aerts 2010/4/6 ICP-Fan <[email protected]> > Ok, maybe I need to explain what I'm trying to do: > > I need to replace lettered waypoint images (A-Z) with my own lettered > waypoint images.
