Google Map API v2 - GeoCoder - how to customize a marker ?

Answer 1

here is what i do.

        if ($('#map_canvas').length != 0) {

            var marker= new GIcon(title);
            marker.image = '/images/icon.png';
            marker.iconSize = new GSize(139,64);
            marker.iconAnchor = new GPoint(0, 64);
            marker.name = title ;


              markerOptions = { icon:marker };
             map = new GMap2(document.getElementById("map_canvas"));
             geocoder = new GClientGeocoder();
             geocoder.getLatLng(
              address,
              function(point) {
                if (!point) {
                  alert(address + " not found");
                } else {
                  map.setCenter(point, 14);
                  map.addOverlay(new GMarker(point, markerOptions));
                  }
                }
              );      
        }
    });
