Why Are Some Tiles Loading Slow? (15 sec lag)

Posted: May 1st, 2008, 9:08pm CEST by randy

My map gets 20 tiles from 4 servers: mt0.google.com -> mt3...

Most of the four tile servers deliver tiles in 0.07 - 1.0 seconds:
typically in ~250ms.

But more than half the time, one (sometimes two) of the tile servers
takes 15.1 sec. Obviously, the lag of 15.1 sec is much longer than
the other tile servers. But why 15.1? Why not sometimes 5 sec, and

Is it possible to add custom properties to GMarker or GPolyline?

Posted: May 1st, 2008, 7:35pm CEST by Vish

Hi all,

I am looking through the Google maps API documentation to figure out
if I can associate a custom property with a Gmarker or a GPolyline. I
want to do this because, I want to load the html for the info window
dynamically through AJAX when the user click on it. Or atleast provide
a 'more' link on the info window that will fetch more bulky

google maps div thinks its somewhere else

Posted: May 1st, 2008, 5:42pm CEST by Xin

The google maps div is positioned towards the right, but it 'thinks'
its in the middle somewhere as it's only displaying tiles around the
top left corner. The rest of the map and overview map are gray.

The map works properly after a open Firebug at the bottom of the
browser. This seems to cause Google Maps to reread the DOM? Very
Setting Opacity on GTileLayer

Posted: May 1st, 2008, 5:13pm CEST by Vish

Hi all,

Is it possible to set the opacity on a GTileLayer? The API only states
a getOpacity(...). Is there any way I can set the Opacity on a
GTileLayer that has already been added to map. Or should I remove the
existing GTileLayer and add a new one with the new opacity?

Thank You,
Vish
Remove Marker Shadows?

Posted: May 1st, 2008, 5:05pm CEST by Shayne

Hello, I have a map I'm working on and I have several(11) custom
Icons. I'm running out of time on the project and am having a hell of
a time making all the shadows for each correctly and then lining them
up on my map. I'm looking for a workaround that would allow me to
restrict all shadows, and then I can maybe just create an custom Icon

How viable is my project idea?

Posted: May 1st, 2008, 1:21pm CEST by Quan

I'm a Msc student and right now I'm choosing a topic to do an
individual 3 months final project.

I'm thinking about building a restaurant suggestion system where user
enters his/her location, budget and preferences of food and the system
will use Google map to generate a list of suggest restaurants based on
map not working in IE7!

Posted: May 1st, 2008, 12:34pm CEST by JMcA

This map works OK in firefox. When I click a marker thumbs display in
info column as required. In IE7 the map loads OK but nothing happens
when a marker or the map is clicked. Can anyone give
guidance ?????????????

UK Postcode Directions for Google API

Hi all,

I'm in desperate need of a way that I can use Google’s MAP API with

Is there any way this can be done and if so please could someone point
me on the right direction.

Many thanks,

Stopping polyline and map event propagation

Posted: May 1st, 2008, 6:44am CEST by Edward Stow

Hi,

How can you stop the event propagation from an ovelay / polyline to
the Map. For example two events added like as:

google.maps.Event.addListener( myPolyline, 'clicked',
function(){alert('polyline clicked')});

google.maps.Event.addListener( myMap, 'clicked',
function(){alert('event propagated to map');});
how to open a bubble with a hyperlink outside the map?

Posted: May 1st, 2008, 5:18am CEST by Chris

I've got a map with several pins. When you click a pin it pops open a
bubble with some information. That's all great.

Now, I also have a list below the map that names all the pins. I'd
like those to be hyperlinks that center the map on the relevant pin
and open the pin's bubble.

I've looked for documentation or code examples of this out there...
