OverlayView class

google.maps.OverlayView class

You can implement this class if you want to display custom types of overlay objects on the map.

Inherit from this class by setting your overlay's prototype: MyOverlay.prototype = new google.maps.OverlayView();. The OverlayView constructor is guaranteed to be an empty function.

You must implement three methods: onAdd(), draw(), and onRemove().

You must call

setMap()

with a valid

Map

object to trigger the call to the

onAdd()

method and

setMap(null)

in order to trigger the

onRemove()

method. The

setMap()

method can be called at the time of construction or at any point afterward when the overlay should be re-shown after removing. The

draw()

method will then be called whenever a map property changes that could change the position of the element, such as zoom, center, or map type.

This class extends MVCObject.

Access by calling const {OverlayView} = await google.maps.importLibrary("maps") or const {OverlayView} = await google.maps.importLibrary("streetView").
See Libraries in the Maps JavaScript API.

Constructor OverlayView

OverlayView()

Parameters:  None

Creates an OverlayView.

Static Methods preventMapHitsAndGesturesFrom

preventMapHitsAndGesturesFrom(element)

Parameters: 

Return Value:  None

Stops click, tap, drag, and wheel events on the element from bubbling up to the map. Use this to prevent map dragging and zooming, as well as map "click" events.

preventMapHitsFrom

preventMapHitsFrom(element)

Parameters: 

Return Value:  None

Stops click or tap on the element from bubbling up to the map. Use this to prevent the map from triggering "click" events.

Methods draw

draw()

Parameters:  None

Return Value:  None

Implement this method to draw or update the overlay. Use the position from projection.fromLatLngToDivPixel() to correctly position the overlay relative to the MapPanes. This method is called after onAdd(), and is called on change of zoom or center. It is not recommended to do computationally expensive work in this method.

getMap

getMap()

Parameters:  None

Return Value:  Map|StreetViewPanorama getPanes

getPanes()

Parameters:  None

Return Value:  MapPanes|null

Returns the panes in which this OverlayView can be rendered. The panes are not initialized until onAdd is called by the API.

getProjection

getProjection()

Parameters:  None

Return Value:  MapCanvasProjection

Returns the MapCanvasProjection object associated with this OverlayView. The projection is not initialized until onAdd is called by the API.

onAdd

onAdd()

Parameters:  None

Return Value:  None

Implement this method to initialize the overlay DOM elements. This method is called once after setMap() is called with a valid map. At this point, panes and projection will have been initialized.

onRemove

onRemove()

Parameters:  None

Return Value:  None

Implement this method to remove your elements from the DOM. This method is called once following a call to setMap(null).

setMap

setMap(map)

Parameters: 

Return Value:  None

Adds the overlay to the map or panorama.

Inherited: addListener, bindTo, get, notify, set, setValues, unbind, unbindAll MapPanes interface

google.maps.MapPanes interface

Properties floatPane Type:  Element

This pane contains the info window. It is above all map overlays. (Pane 4).

mapPane Type:  Element

This pane is the lowest pane and is above the tiles. It does not receive DOM events. (Pane 0).

markerLayer Type:  Element

This pane contains markers. It does not receive DOM events. (Pane 2).

overlayLayer Type:  Element

This pane contains polylines, polygons, ground overlays and tile layer overlays. It does not receive DOM events. (Pane 1).

overlayMouseTarget Type:  Element

This pane contains elements that receive DOM events. (Pane 3).

MapCanvasProjection interface

google.maps.MapCanvasProjection interface

This object is made available to the OverlayView from within the draw method. It is not guaranteed to be initialized until draw is called.

Methods fromContainerPixelToLatLng

fromContainerPixelToLatLng(pixel[, noClampNoWrap])

Parameters:  Return Value:  LatLng|null

Computes the geographical coordinates from pixel coordinates in the map's container.

fromDivPixelToLatLng

fromDivPixelToLatLng(pixel[, noClampNoWrap])

Parameters:  Return Value:  LatLng|null

Computes the geographical coordinates from pixel coordinates in the div that holds the draggable map.

fromLatLngToContainerPixel

fromLatLngToContainerPixel(latLng)

Parameters:  Return Value:  Point|null

Computes the pixel coordinates of the given geographical location in the map's container element.

fromLatLngToDivPixel

fromLatLngToDivPixel(latLng)

Parameters:  Return Value:  Point|null

Computes the pixel coordinates of the given geographical location in the DOM element that holds the draggable map.

getVisibleRegion

getVisibleRegion()

Parameters:  None

Return Value:  VisibleRegion|null

The visible region of the map. Returns null if the map has no size. Returns null if the OverlayView is on a StreetViewPanorama.

getWorldWidth

getWorldWidth()

Parameters:  None

Return Value:  number

The width of the world in pixels in the current zoom level. For projections with a heading angle of either 90 or 270 degrees, this corresponds to the pixel span in the Y-axis.
