Destination value with DirectionsRenderer in Google Maps v3

Question

Loving Google Maps API V3, but having difficulty in getting accurate driving directions and manipulating the destination address displayed when using DirectionsRenderer.

Regardless if I pass an address string or a latLng instance as the destination to DirectionsService, when I use the DirectionsRenderer to output step-by-step directions, the destination text is always the geocoded result of my original destination (i.e. the address, rather than COMPANY NAME).

Ideally, I want to pass a precise latLng destination to DirectionsService, but control the text displayed as the 'destination'.

I guess I could manually output the HTML, but part lazy, part not wanting to re-invent the wheel, would prefer to use DirectionsRenderer.

Any ideas?

You may use:

response.routes[0].legs[0].end_address="Company";

before calling

directionsDisplay.setDirections(response);
