ControlOptions new google maps version

[Juan Manuel Andrade]

hello all, I have made a webpage using timemap two years ago. I must recently update it, now I see there are no map controls (zoom, pan, etc), and looking into google maps API, maps v2 is deprecated, and now only available and official version is 3, I want to know how it could be possible to enable again map controls and where do i have to put the code in order to update it, thanks!

Juan,

I have found that this works. Set up a map options object and then attach it to the map. For example

var tm;

$(function() {

    var myMapOptions = {

   zoomControl: true,

   zoomControlOptions: {

     style: google.maps.ZoomControlStyle.SMALL

   }

    };

//...etc all the other stuff you want...

    tm = TimeMap.init({

        mapId: "map",               // Id of map div element (required)

        timelineId: "timeline",     // Id of timeline div element (required)

//... more stuff you want as usual...

    });

    

    // set the map to our custom style

    var gmap = tm.getNativeMap();

    gmap.setOptions(myMapOptions);

});

Hope that helps

Richard
