Detecting clicks on places

[Gustavo Ambrozio]

I'm building a custom map and I'd like to provide my own info windows.

Everything works on my custom markers, but if you zoom a lot you can
see some places icons. If you click on those you still get the default
info window.

I'd like to capture the event that triggers this info window and
provide my own info window. How can I do this?

To see what I mean, go to this sample:

http://gmaps-samples-v3.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/map_events/map_events.html

Click on the airplane icon that appears over the airport on the top
right corner and it will open the info window for the airport.

Can I intercept this event and provide my own info window?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advange

No, unfortunately you can't.
You can't even close the default info window when toggling the POIs
and an info windows remains open.

What you can do is, not to display the clickable POIs. That's the only
way I Know of to avoid the default info window.

Thanks for the reply. How can I hide these clickable POIs then?

This will disable all pois

new google.maps.Map(mapDiv, {
center: new google.maps.LatLng(...),
zoom: ...,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP,
styles: [
{
featureType: "poi",
stylers: [
{ visibility: "off" }
]
}
]

});

Have a look at the reference for disabling/enabling certain types
