This example sets the Map Type control to use the dropdown style.

Read the documentation.

TypeScript

// You can set control options to change the default position or style of many
// of the map controls.

function initMap(): void {
  const map = new google.maps.Map(
    document.getElementById("map") as HTMLElement,
    {
      zoom: 4,
      center: { lat: -33, lng: 151 },
      mapTypeControl: true,
      mapTypeControlOptions: {
        style: google.maps.MapTypeControlStyle.DROPDOWN_MENU,
        mapTypeIds: ["roadmap", "terrain"],
      },
    }
  );
}

declare global {
  interface Window {
    initMap: () => void;
  }
}
window.initMap = initMap;

Note: Read the guide on using TypeScript and Google Maps. JavaScript

// You can set control options to change the default position or style of many
// of the map controls.
function initMap() {
  const map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map"), {
    zoom: 4,
    center: { lat: -33, lng: 151 },
    mapTypeControl: true,
    mapTypeControlOptions: {
      style: google.maps.MapTypeControlStyle.DROPDOWN_MENU,
      mapTypeIds: ["roadmap", "terrain"],
    },
  });
}

window.initMap = initMap;

Note: The JavaScript is compiled from the TypeScript snippet. CSS

/* 
 * Always set the map height explicitly to define the size of the div element
 * that contains the map. 
 */
#map {
  height: 100%;
}

/* 
 * Optional: Makes the sample page fill the window. 
 */
html,
body {
  height: 100%;
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}
