Map Properties for Placemark List

Width Placemark List Width in pixels

If set 0 then you've got 100% width.
It can be useful in bottom position and 100% map width

Height Placemark List Height in pixels
Position Values
  • No - there is no placemark list
  • ... - overlay on map
  • Left and Right - table layout
  • List-Map and Map-List - div layout
  • External - you can put ul-tag with id=GMapsMarkerUL in your place to define your place to show placemark list

For example,

<ul id="GMapsMarkerUL" style="list-style-type: none;"></ul>
Style Values
  • Simple - predefined in CSS-file
  • Advanced - predefined in CSS-file
  • External - you can define it in your template
Background Color Background Color

Example: #EAEAEA

As for gradient in my example, I've got it from internet sites. When you specify background color #E6E6E6, I add into style line

background: #E6E6E6

I've got this example

background: #fefcea; /* For old browsers */
    background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #fefcea, #f1da36); /* Firefox 3.6+ */
    /* Chrome 1-9, Safari 4-5 */
    background: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, 
                color-stop(0%,#fefcea), color-stop(100%,#f1da36));
    /* Chrome 10+, Safari 5.1+ */
    background: -webkit-linear-gradient(top, #fefcea, #f1da36);
    background: -o-linear-gradient(top, #fefcea, #f1da36); /* Opera 11.10+ */
    background: -ms-linear-gradient(top, #fefcea, #f1da36); /* IE10 */
    background: linear-gradient(top, #fefcea, #f1da36); /* CSS3 */ 
    padding: 10px;
    border: 1px solid #333;


I don't know is it true example, for all cases. But, for example, why not. I've replace start and end colors to mine. And, first background: we don't enter, because I do it.

And after all this is mine code

#E6E6E6; /* For old browsers */
     background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #E6E6E6, #AAAAAA); /* Firefox 3.6+ */
     /* Chrome 1-9, Safari 4-5 */
     background: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom,
                  color-stop(0%,#E6E6E6), color-stop(100%,#AAAAAA));
     /* Chrome 10+, Safari 5.1+ */
     background: -webkit-linear-gradient(top, #E6E6E6, #AAAAAA);
     background: -o-linear-gradient(top, #E6E6E6, #AAAAAA); /* Opera 11.10+ */
     background: -ms-linear-gradient(top, #E6E6E6, #AAAAAA); /* IE10 */
     background: linear-gradient(top, #E6E6E6, #AAAAAA); /* CSS3 */
     padding: 10px;
     border: 1px solid #333;

I note that in IE9 there is no gradient. But it is not task to do it in my component by CSS. In any case you can do it by image and applying for class.

Placemark Customization

Copy your marker images (format PNG) in the directory

/administrator/components/com_zhgooglemap/assets/icons/

Component will automatically pick up the picture when choosing the type of marker.

The only requirement - the file name use English letters and can't contain any special character; the file extension have to be a .png ie in lower case, because names of images stored in a database without the extension, and it is appended in the output.

Don't forget about Compatibility Mode for Resource Files

Grouping

The marker may be included in one group, for this to specify a marker belonging to the group. If the field of markers grouping is set (field value Group Control is different from No), then starts an additional feature: a list of active groups (the location is determined by this same field, with the first four (left, top, right, bottom) correspond to the table form of representation, while the two latter (Group-Map, Map-Group) - based on the div, and you have the opportunity to do anything with them.

The map also has a drop-down list Group CSS - which implements the following functionality:

  • the first two styles - predefined
  • the third - you can override it in your CSS file template
  • while in three cases, just have three different names of objects, respectively, we can change the styles they like.


The following names

for the div-tag ID takes the value

  • GMapsMenu-advanced
  • GMapsMenu-simple
  • GMapsMenu-external

for ul-tag

  • zhgm-menu-advanced
  • zhgm-menu-simple
  • zhgm-menu-external

Accordingly, styles, prescribes for them. Field Show Group Icon is used to display icons in the list of groups.
