Clustering/Grouping different markers under the same cluster

[julienhelios]

I have a technical issue that get me stuck. I am using Google Map to display items belonging to different categories (see image). Each category has its own marker icon (example the house, the recycle.. on the image enclosed) to recognize it easily.

I want to cluster all of them and i know how to do it if there were only one category of item (one type of marker, for instance the house one) but i am not able to cluster different kind of items under the same cluster. For instance, for the image enclosed, i would like to cluster the 3 types of items (plus, recycle and house) to get something like this :

I would really appreciate if someone could give me a tip !

Thanks

I am currently trying marker clustering as well, and I able to cluster different category under same cluster by using the library above.

Just wonder, how you cluster them if there were only one category? Is it using the same library that I am using? Thanks :)

FYI that library is for V2 - you'll want the V3 library - http://code.google.com/p/google-maps-utility-library-v3/source/browse/trunk/markerclusterer/src/markerclusterer.js

Use a single MarkerCluster object for all the markers. The markers
don't need to have the same attributes.
