StyledMapType based on TERRAIN

[pi5701]

Is it possible to create a styled maptype based on terrain map?

Examples only show styling of default streetmap or all maptypes together.

looking at the feature request here: http://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=2507&can=1&q=apitype%3AJavascript3&colspec=ID%20Type%20Status%20Introduced%20Fixed%20Summary%20Internal%20Stars i guess its possible,

can anyone gimme a quick demo of how to style terrain map and use it as own maptype?

Hi,

This is possible using the "styles" option on the MapOptions object.

For example, to disable labels on the Terrain map:

new google.maps.Map(mapDiv, {

  center: new google.maps.LatLng(...),

  zoom: ...,

  mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.TERRAIN,

  styles: [

    {

      elementType: "labels",

      stylers: [

        { visibility: "off" }

      ]

    }

  ]

});

thx for reply,

but this way i only get a map with styled terrain map only.

what i wanna do is using styled terrain map without labels to show my data beside 'unstyled' street, hybrid and terrainmap

This is a possibility to turn the labels on and off for every map
type. Additionally you can also switch the country borders and the
roads off.

I just tried this out and it worked (nearly) perfectly.

There is only a minor complaint to notice:

It seems that the labels cannot immediately and completely turned off.
When zooming in or out with labels turned off the labels are displayed
for a short (but noticeable) moment before they vanish.

That sounds like a bug. Please be sure to log it on the Issue Tracker.

Many thanks,
