Resize markers depending on zoom Google maps v3

Question

Hi all i have a Google map running on the v3 API, i added some custom markers, is it possible to make them scale depending on the zoom level of the map ? I tried searching the reference but cant seem to find any methods to resize a MarkerImage.

Maybe i have to remove markers everything the map changes zoom and create new markers in different size?

Unfortunately, you would have to setIcon every single time. However, you can pre-define them, and then just apply them to the marker.

zoomIcons = [null, icon1, icon2];  // No such thing as zoom level 0. A global variable or define within object.
marker.setIcon(zoomIcons[map.getZoom()]);
