Polygon click and drag/dragend

[PhilR8]

In v2, click events for polygons would not be fired if the user
clicked and dragged inside of the polygon. Example:

http://www.geocodezip.com/holidaymullandiona_firstmapD.asp

In v3, clicking and dragging inside a polygon DOES fire a click
event. Example:

http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/v3/examples/polygon-arrays.html

Note that when you click and drag, when you finish dragging, the click
event fires and the infowindow opens.

Is this by design, or is this a bug/feature that has yet to be
implemented? I have a map of the US covered entirely by state
polygons and it's impossible to navigate by dragging without firing
the polygon click events.

Damn, no thoughts? Did I explain the problem adequately? tl;dr: When
you click and drag a clickable polygon in V2, the infowindow does not
open. When you perform the same action in V3, it DOES open. I'm just
wondering if this is intentional.

For now I've disabled autopan for the infowindows, even though I'd
rather not.

I was hoping to hear a response to this too. I'd also like to trigger
info windows based on polygon clicks. Panning the map by inadvertently
click-n-dragging a polygon, which triggers an info window, which would
reverse pan the map back to make the info window fully show would be
really unintuitive and frustrating.

Right now I have polygons which are "dead" and an auto-generated-and-
centered custom Marker Icon (not blank/invisible) which opens the
related info window. I wonder if that made any sense to anyone else.
Better look at the example link if it didn't heh.

Hey guys,

I've filed a internal bug about the click event firing on a poly drag.

I've exactly the same problem, and don't know how to solve it.

Very old thread....but I still believe that I experience this issue – at least a related one.

When I set draggable: false in MapOptions, a click event is emitted when I drag in the map. If I set draggable: true, the click event is not emitted.
