Hello All, I am looking to achieve two things on the map component in Ignition 8. 1. I want to access the onClick event for a marker on the map to perform a few simple actions based on which marker was clicked. Map component provides a way to access only the onClick event for the map, not the marker. 2. I want to manipulate the color of the marker, essentially to show some kind of status. Any suggestions on how this can be done? ---

Currently, there is no way to do this. The map component has yet to be revisited since the conference, but there is plan to do so later this week. I will include your request for features in this plan. --Yousuf ---

Do you know if the map component has been reworked now? ---

Hi, I’m currently working on the component at the moment. Your feature request has successfully been added. Each marker has a name property (set by the designer) that is passed along in the marker click event payload. I have also added the corresponding component event called onMarkerClick which you may subscribe to. There are other features that have been added, including: - onMapClick component event which contains the lat and lng coordinates of the click event - a new view layer added to the ui layers - the ability to render views in popups and tooltips - performance updates I am hopeful that these changes will become available in the next nightly build. -Yousuf ---

Awesome. Thanks!! Will there be a way to manipulate the color of the marker or maybe even change the icon? ---

Hi, Is there way i can assign events for each individual marker clicks? Right now all makers are having the same scripts. Regards, Kumar ---

Give your markers unique names and then you can dispatch to any desired script based on marker name. ---

Yes. My markers have unique names. When I configure using right click, configure events; Configuring one marker, configures all markers with the same script.
