I have been able to draw the label, still I can't get the positioning right. This is the code in case someone wants to do something similar:
public class MapLabel { private Element div; private LatLng latLng; private SimplePanel textPanel; private String text; private OverlayView overlay = OverlayView.create(); public MapLabel(LatLng latLng, String text, GoogleMap map) { this.latLng = latLng; this.text = text; HTML textWidget = new HTML(text); textPanel = new SimplePanel(); textPanel.setStyleName("textOverlayPanel"); textPanel.add(textWidget); initOverlay(overlay); overlay.setMap(map); } private final native void initOverlay(JavaScriptObject jso) /*-{ var instance = this; jso.draw = function() { $entry(instan...@gr.palmera.maps.client.MapLabel::myDraw()()); }; jso.onAdd = function() { $entry(instan...@gr.palmera.maps.client.MapLabel::myOnAdd()()); }; jso.onRemove = function() { $entry(instan...@gr.palmera.maps.client.MapLabel::myOnRemove()()); }; }-*/; public void myDraw() { Point ne = overlay.getProjection().fromLatLngToDivPixel(overlay.getMap().getBounds().getNorthEast()); Point sw = overlay.getProjection().fromLatLngToDivPixel(overlay.getMap().getBounds().getSouthWest()); Point p = overlay.getProjection().fromLatLngToDivPixel(latLng); div.getParentElement().getStyle().setTop(p.getY(), Unit.PX); div.getParentElement().getStyle().setLeft(p.getX(), Unit.PX); div.getStyle().setWidth(100, Unit.PX); div.getStyle().setHeight(25, Unit.PX); } public void myOnAdd() { div = DOM.createDiv(); div.appendChild(textPanel.getElement()); overlay.getPanes().getFloatPane().appendChild(div); } public void myOnRemove() { div.removeFromParent(); textPanel.removeFromParent(); div = null; textPanel = null; } } -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
