I want to display the title or label on loctions on the google map,it works on markers,but not within polygons.
Here is my current Google maps JS Code
if (CurrData.Shape == "Circle" )
{
marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: CurrLatlong,
map: gMap,
title: CurrData.Bhname,
label:
{
color: 'white',
fontWeight: 'normal',
text: CurrData.Bhname,
},
icon:
{
path: google.maps.SymbolPath.CIRCLE,
scale: 8.5,
fillColor: colour,
fillOpacity: 0.8,
strokeWeight: 1
},
hover: CurrData.Bhname
});
}
else
{
marker = new google.maps.Polygon
({
map: gMap,//edited by anjaly
paths: pathShape,
scale: 8.5,
strokeOpacity: 0.3,
title: CurrData.Bhname,
label: CurrData.Bhname,
strokeWeight: 1,
fillColor: colour,
fillOpacity: 0.8,
position: CurrLatlong,
hover: CurrData.Bhname,
});
Thanks
If you want to use Google maps with Polygons here is the sample code
var map;
var gpolygons = [];
var infoWindow;
function initialize() {
var mapOptions = {
zoom: 18,
center: new google.maps.LatLng(50.71392, -1.983551),
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
};
map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map-canvas'), mapOptions);
// Define the LatLng coordinates for the polygon.
var triangleCoords = [
new google.maps.LatLng(50.71433, -1.98392),
new google.maps.LatLng(50.71393, -1.98239),
new google.maps.LatLng(50.71388, -1.98226),
new google.maps.LatLng(50.71377, -1.98246),
new google.maps.LatLng(50.71332, -1.98296),
new google.maps.LatLng(50.71334, -1.98324),
new google.maps.LatLng(50.71374, -1.9845),
new google.maps.LatLng(50.71436, -1.98389)
];
// Construct the polygon.
var mypolygon = new google.maps.Polygon({
paths: triangleCoords,
strokeColor: '#FF0000',
strokeOpacity: 0.8,
strokeWeight: 3,
fillColor: '#FF0000',
fillOpacity: 0.35
});
mypolygon.setMap(map);
//Define position of label
var myLatlng = new google.maps.LatLng(50.71392, -1.983551);
var mapLabel = new MapLabel({
text: 'My Area Text 1',
position: myLatlng,
map: map,
fontSize: 20,
align: 'left'
});
mapLabel.set('position', myLatlng);
var obj = {};
obj.poly = mypolygon;
obj.label = mapLabel;
gpolygons.push(obj);
var polyCoords = [
new google.maps.LatLng(50.713689004418, -1.9845771789550781),

// Construct the polygon.
var mypolygon2 = new google.maps.Polygon({

//Define position of label
var bounds = new google.maps.LatLngBounds();
for (var i = 0; i < polyCoords.length; i++) {

var mapLabel2 = new MapLabel({
text: 'My Area Text 2',

mapLabel2.set('position', myLatlng);
var obj = {};
obj.poly = mypolygon2;
obj.label = mapLabel2;
gpolygons.push(obj);
// Add a listener for the click event. You can expand this to change the color of the polygon
google.maps.event.addListener(mypolygon, 'click', showArrays);
google.maps.event.addListener(mypolygon2, 'click', showArrays);
infoWindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow();
}
/** @this {google.maps.Polygon} */
function showArrays(event) {

}
// Since this polygon has only one path, we can call getPath()
// to return the MVCArray of LatLngs.
var vertices = this.getPath();
var contentString = '<b>My polygon</b><br>' +
'Clicked location: <br>' + event.latLng.lat() + ',' + event.latLng.lng() +
'<br>';
// Iterate over the vertices.
for (var i = 0; i < vertices.getLength(); i++) {
var xy = vertices.getAt(i);
contentString += '<br>' + 'Coordinate ' + i + ':<br>' + xy.lat() + ',' + xy.lng();
}
// Replace the info window's content and position.
infoWindow.setContent(contentString);
infoWindow.setPosition(event.latLng);
infoWindow.open(map);
}
google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initialize);
HTML
<div id="map-canvas">
</div>
Here is the working fiddle link http://jsfiddle.net/qLx65bhg/
Another Option instead of using Google maps
Second option is to use jqvmap which gives better grasp when comes to polygons and labels here is the sample link.
