[Google Maps API v3] Extracting data from KML layer on MouseMove event
This is my first post here, so I hope I've included all the information you need - if you need anything else, let me know. I'm using V3 of the API, and am trying to extract data values from an added KML layer. The KML layer was created using ArcGIS 9.3, and I'm trying to extract the value from the tag. I can do this successfully on the click event - see http://www.nickbearman.me.uk/academic/test20100529/V3KMLLayer.htm and click on one or more of the pinky boxes over the UK. However, I can't get this to work on the MouseMove event. The code is in that file (lines 52-62) but just doesn't do anything. As far as I can tell, the MouseMove event doesn't even fire - which is a bit odd. An example of what I want to do is at http://www.nickbearman.me.uk/academic/test20100529/V3Map.htm where the instance is set to map (i.e. the map) rather than ctaLayer (the KML layer). In this example, it just returns 'Jim' as I can't access the KML data. Any thoughts or other things I could try please? I'm using Firefox 3.6.3 with this.

[Google Maps API v3] Bug Report: default language behavior difference between geocoder versions V2 & V3
I've noticed a difference in the localization of results on the HTTP geocoder which I'm not sure is intentional. The V2 reverse geocoder defaulted the language of the locality names to the local language, while the V3 returns them all in english. For example: V3: http://maps.google.com/maps/api/geocode/xml?latlng=34.3937,132.464&sensor=false V2: http://maps.google.com/maps/geo?q=34.3937,132.464&output=xml&sensor=false The V3 locality/country/etc names are all in English, while the V2 results tend to be in the local language of the geocoded location. I've tried this with points in several countries and the behavior is consistent. While I could set the output language manually, if I want the local name of a place this would require twice the number of geocoder requests to accomplish. The docs however do not mention a difference in behaviors with respect to the language/hl parameters V2: http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/geocoding/v2/index.html#GeocodingRequests V3: http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/geocoding/#GeocodingRequests Is this the new default behavior or am I missing something? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group.

[Google Maps API v3] Adding properties to Object.prototype breaks Google Maps
I notice that when any property is added to Object.prototype (a variable or a function), Google Maps will fail to load the map. Here is an example demonstrating the problem: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9699560/map.html If you comment the line that says 'Object.prototype.pi = 3.1415;', the map will load. Web developer gives me this error: Error: Invalid value: [object Object] (Error in property : (a[d] is not a function)) Source File: http://maps.gstatic.com/intl/en_us/mapfiles/api-3/1/8a/main.js Line: 16 And Firebug says: a[d] is not a function I'm not sure what causes this, and I can't even begin to debug the minified Google code, so I was wondering if anyone had a fix or a workaround. Having access to Object.prototype is important, because I implement Douglas Crockford's Object.prototype.beget method (which will be added to the next ECMAScript version as Object.create).

what you suggested. I now have the following and the map does still
not show.

and my content page:
Any other ideas please?

[Google Maps API v3] Multiple layer on load
Toggle-able KML / Fusion Table layers are possible using Javascript and radio buttons or checkboxes etc. Is it possible to load several layers from different sources (say, different Fusion Tables) at the same time, when the map is initialised? I've noticed a large amount of geometry on a map slows down the maps performance, in particular the time it takes between clicking a feature on the map and the info window popping up? Would spreading the data over several Fusion Tables cut out this lag? For example 5 tables each holding data for a region of a country, rather than 1 table holding all of that data?

[Google Maps API v3] Re: Thousands of polygons...
I've tried this with the UK, the file size for all that geodata was 25MB+, mainly because of Scotland's complex coastline and the fact that some counties had incredibly complex to take account of hundred and hundreds of offshore islands. The performance on Fusion Tables was OK if I included just the name and geometry for each polygon. Adding any other data (ie. useful for turning the map into a chloropleth) slowed down the map's reaction times. Based on my experience I disagree that Fusion Tables is a solution for you at present. I assume there's a way to simplify polygons while ensuring the boundaries are still coterminous (ie. using some kind of GiS to crunch the numbers). Presumably then simpler polygons would equal better Fusion Tables performance. If anyone can enlightenment me on whether I'm right in my assumption, do tell...

[Google Maps API v3] Re: Custom controls
To my limited knowledge the answer seems to be no.
It's for a legend that the user can remove if it's cluttering up the
map_canvas.
I've just discovered this approach:
— create the control div
— nest another div inside of it, whose id we define
— toggle the { display: } of that div between 'block' and 'none'
using, for example, a checkbox.
The control appears to disappear and reappear, although of course it
is never actually removed from the map.
Which, for a quick and dirty workaround, might be the ticket...

[Google Maps API v3] Re: Gviz query
Thanks Esa. Actually I've worked a lot with FT layers and must agree.
The reason I was looking into this was because, by generating the
markers rather than in an FT layer, I was able to give them titles
(equivalent to title="" in anchor tags). Other marker mouseover
effects could also be set.
If you know of a solution to show titles — something I think is
helpful for a user when trying to decide if a marker is relevant to
them, and hence open the info window - I'd love to hear your thoughts.
Likewise, I'd be greatly if you or indeed anybody could answer this:
in my original example using the google Viz API, is there a way to
skip the geocode step altogether assuming I already have the LatLng
coordinates in my Fusion Table?
All the best,
Nick

Indeed it is. But, for arguments sake, let's say I wanted to draw an infowindow not as a result of a marker click, simply because I wanted it to appear. If it had no contents passed to it by the click, the window would be empty.

[Google Maps API v3] Bounding box behavior
Hi everyone,
I already asked this question on stackoverflow, but this is probably the
better place to ask:
I am using Googles Map API v3. Can somebody explain the behavior of the
map's bounding boxes to me?
Depending on the zoom level these bounds behave weird - when I zoom in it
works as expected - the bounds stretch from the lower left corner of the
pane to the upper right corner. As soon as I zoom out it get weirds - the
bounding box splits up. You can reproduce this with the google examples and
the attached code. Just zoom out until the maximum after running the code.
The wrong bounding boxes are really annoying - e.g. markers in between are
not in the bounds of the map, although they are visible.
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/map-simple.html
http://www.spotdiving.com/bug.png
var viewportBox;
google.maps.event.addListener(this.map, 'idle', function(event)
{
var bounds = map.getBounds();
var ne = bounds.getNorthEast();
var sw = bounds.getSouthWest();
var viewportPoints = [
ne, new google.maps.LatLng(ne.lat(), sw.lng()),
sw, new google.maps.LatLng(sw.lat(), ne.lng()), ne
];
if (viewportBox)
{
viewportBox.setPath(viewportPoints);
} else
{
viewportBox = new google.maps.Polyline({
path: viewportPoints,
strokeColor: '#FF',
strokeOpacity: 1.0,
strokeWeight: 4
});
viewportBox.setMap(map);
}
});

[Google Maps API v3] Re: Bounding box behavior
Thank you for your reply! Did you paste the code before zooming? When I paste it to the console and zoom out afterwards I can see it. Just tried it using Safari, I have not tested it in another browser. Well, what I am trying to achieve is the following: I want to know whether a marker is visible or not. Hence I wanted to check if the bounds of the map contain the position of this marker. This does not work when the bounding box of the map behaves like that, because a marker that is in between these rectangles will not be within their bounds.

[Google Maps API v3] Implement Marker Manager loading w/ Marker Clusterer
Hello, I have a few questions regarding Marker Manager and Clusterer. I've got a website that handles a very large number of markers within a viewport. We've been using Clusterer to handle the markers, as the smart clustering works very well for us. However, we are having a hard time with loading the markers, since it shifts every time the bounds changed, and it results in very slow loading and updating times. We tried Marker Manager, and that works a lot better, since it has a slow load time upfront but then no load time after that. However, there is no smart clustering in Marker Manager, only predefined cluster locations. What I'm wondering is kind of technical. Why is the Manager able to load the markers upfront at a relatively fast speed, whereas Clusterer seems to have a harder time loading and drawing the markers? Ideally I would like to have Clusterer load like Manager, but maintain the clustering abilities.

[Google Maps API v3] Re: Customer controls in V3
Sure you can:
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/v3/overlays.html#CustomOverlays
Now, these aren't "custom controls" yet. But you can get them on
specific layers of the map by attaching them in the onAdd function:
var panes = this.getPanes();
panes.overlayImage.appendChild(div);
If you look at the documentation for panes, there are predefined
layers there that you can attach to. If you want it just floating on
top of the map, like the other controls, you may just want to append
it to the map.getDiv(). That's where the other controls are. Then just
give it CSS positioning ("top: 0; left: 0;" for top-left, etc.).
The problem with this is that since they aren't controls, the other
controls don't know anything about what you're trying to do. Since we
only have the gimped control-positioning (http://code.google.com/apis/
maps/documentation/v3/controls.html#ControlPositioning) we can't give
the controls a specific position. The workaround is to go through the
map-div and grab the right control div. This is really hacky though,
especially since the control divs get added after the overlays, and as
far as I can tell, there is no event to hook into that fires off after
the controls are loaded. This API can be frustrating at times!
I am currently using a "control" that sits in the top left of the map.
This is the control: http://nickspacek.github.com/jQuery-PlacePicker/
It requires some more code to make it an overlay, which isn't
demonstrated there, but is fairly easy.

[Google Maps API v3] Re: Customer controls in V3
If you want to get really dirty, I've cooked up something completely awful. I was interested in looking into how the map controls are created/added so I could find a better workaround for my control issues. I created this terrible piece of code: http://github.com/nickspacek/Google-Maps-V3-Hacks/blob/master/google.hooks.js Right now all it lets me do is inspect the code in the controls.js file, and add a hook to track when the controls have been added to the map. Since all of the map components are loaded dynamically and run through an eval function (google.__gjsload_apilite__), we can hijack that and mess around with the eval string.

[Google Maps API v3] Re: 2010/01/28: New Release
> Changed issues: > * Issue 1367: Feature Request: Expose LayoutManager for developers to > place DIVs in the "control flow" Currently, the stock controls take precedence over custom controls. Is this an intended and permanent limitation, or will this be more flexible? Or am I doing it wrong? :) Is there a way to put my custom controls into the layout first? I assumed that the exposed layout manager would have all of the stock controls exposed as well. What I want is to have my control across the top of the map, and bump the navigation controls down, but instead the nav controls bump my control to the right. For now, I'll set the navigation controls to be placed on the LEFT, but it'd be nice to be able to order the controls as we see fit. Thanks for this feature though!

> Changed issues: > * Issue 1367: Feature Request: Expose LayoutManager for developers to > place DIVs in the "control flow" Also, I'd like to end up with a control sitting on top of the copyright. There doesn't seem to be any way to accomplish this currently with the LayoutManager. If I set BOTTOM_RIGHT, it sticks the control in the middle bottom. If I set RIGHT, it rises up to the top. Is there a way we can set the direction it flows? Thanks again! Nick Spacek -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group.

[Google Maps API v3] Event to determine directionsDisplay rendering complete?
Hi, I'm using v3 on an iPhone, so map loading can be pretty slow, and I'd like to give a visual indication of busy/working to the user until everything has finished. Is there a way to determine when the directions polyline has finished rendering (and associated map zoom, re-centering, etc)? i.e., directionsService.route() callback is called, I call directionsDisplay.setDirections() and then things can chug along for up to 10 seconds before the rendering is complete. I tried using the 'idle' event, but it is fired soon after setDirections() is called, but well before the polyline appears and the map is re-positioned. I thought about using the tilesloaded event, but that might not fire if no new map tiles were needed?

[Google Maps API v3] Offline cache.manifest for Maps API v3 ?

[Google Maps API v3] Re: FYI: New Release (2010/05/11)
Any chance of making a 'more stable' version of v3 available, like there is for API v2 ? Even if it was just delayed by a couple of weeks, that would be enough to catch most serious issues, and it would mean we could develop without being exposed to the bleeding edge version, if that was what we wanted. (The issue with MarkerClusterer had me tearing my hair out for a couple of hours before I realised there was a new version of v3 that was causing the problems!)

[Google Maps API v3] MarkerCluster click-to-zoom on iPhone?
The MarkerCluster library for API v3 is excellent - thank you! On most browsers I've tried (Chrome, Opera, desktop Safari), a click on a 'cluster' will re-center the map on that location and also zoom in 1 level. However on the iPhone v3.1.2 it only re-centers the map, and doesn't zoom. Any idea why that would be, and are there any options to get it to do the zoom as well?

[Google Maps API v3] Re: 2011/2/18 - New Release
Hey Chris, The new controls look great, no problems there. But I do have a bug that's popped up in 3.4, possibly related to WebGL issues. A distant ancestor of my map div has -webkit-backface-visibility:hidden. This worked fine in 3.3, but now I'm getting all kinds of visual weirdness when my 3D transforms start firing on that ancestor div. Most prominently, the map ignores backface visibility and shows it's rear no matter what, until the animation completes and the whole thing gets removed from the DOM. But in addition it's causing visual oddities in some of its siblings. Sometimes certain divs will flicker, or disappear partially or completely (ex: one div gets cut in half; the left half continues its journey into the Z axis, the other just disappears), and sometimes, after the parent is no longer visible and in its flipped state, the map's backface sticks around. No parent or siblings to contain it, just a map backface floating in space! These behaviors seem to be completely random and change every time. Any idea what could be causing that? Everything else looks great, but I had to switch back to 3.3 in the meantime!
