Any way to make POI visible but non-clickable?

[Bob Greenberg]

I've seen some info about the new POI feature in v3.6 (poi.business, etc).
I understand I can turn these on/off with the visibility attribute.
Is there any way to have the POI be displayed, but not be clickable?
In the case of POI, what is the effect of visibility=simplified?
regards,

you post just prove my thoughts about this "feature"... no one wanted
it but still we got it while we need a ton of other things :/

we need weather, youtube, wiki, webcams!, real g.earth aso aso... i
just can pray that the v3 api team gets more people to work on the
features we really need

my suggestion would be, just turn that feature off and use the places
api (heres an example how i do it: http://youspots.com/?mapid=3824)

en4ce,

you're surely right. But you shouldn't forget that the priorities of
Google are commercial.

Bob,

there is no clickable option - if it should exist - exposed. So you
cannot create one and there is no access to any click event.

I made a few trials to switch between visibility simplified and
visibility on, but wasn't able to see a difference.

Also did not find one. Though I would have had the POIs left on my map
if they were'nt clickable, I finally removed them completely. Clicking
on a POI by accident completely destroys my layouts which are
optimized to also work on mobile devices.

If google one day offers POIs without a popup I might be bringing them
back on my map again since they are an additional item to help find
ones orientation on a map.
