I have a website that displays kml Line Strings as bike routes on google-maps.
I would like to label the routes but have not been able to do so.
I have not been able to add a bubble to the Line String. I put a Placemark along the route, and it shows up as an icon but i could not find a way to put a label on them. I could not change the icon to a png icon with the text I need.
I have been trying different things, generally looking at these documents but just trying a lot of different things.
https://developers.google.com/kml/documentation/mapsSupport
https://developers.google.com/kml/documentation/kmlelementsinmaps
I don't know for sure if it is just not possible or if I am doing something wrong.
The only thing I can think of is to draw a Line String in Google Earth in the shape of the characters I need for my label, in the location I want to display it, but that seems silly, it should be easier than that.
Has anyone been able to add labels in a kml file for display in google-map API 3?
If I understand your question, I believe it has already been asked here. Also, in your question you talk about changing a Placemark icon and there is a different answer that I believe addresses that part of your question. Hope this helps -

I’m new to wordpress therefore I’m not aware of all the capabilities of this tool, but I wanted to know how do I add buttons on top of an image, much like the waypoints you normally see in maps in museums or even video-games. It is something that I am having trouble recreating and I would need some help with that.
Here is an example but of course, with less buttons than what it is actually shown here.
Also, before I forget to mention, thank you to all those who try to help me.
(This is a repost from my original topic in the wordpress forums, you can find it here.)
Is there a way to add a hidden info-text in FontForge? I think, I could need that sometimes.
I mean something like that:
Hint 1: I generate that text with a external graphic programm, not with FontForge itself; because that's my question how to do that.
Hint 2: The info text should be for own work, not for read out etc.
Hint 3: I mean info-text in the displayed area, not the comment function under 'glyph info'.
As a FontForge developer, I guess the best way is to make a point with a really long name. A single floating point shouldn't mess anything up, especially if it's inside the bounds of the left and right bearings of the glyph.
So, go to «Point→Name Point». If you want multiline input, copy and paste from e.g. Notepad++.
I noticed that it seems to render multiple lines in the wrong place, which seems to be a minor bug (I'll open a bug for it done: №4420), but you can just move the point up, or use multiple points floating at the right side for multiple lines.
I'm running into an issue. I'm trying to rewrite an old flash/xml map using CSS. I have a big jpg of the map, which is the background. I'm able to lay the icons out, where they need to be.
The problem I'm having is centering the whole thing on the page. Ideally, the map would be centered and the user would be able to click and drag the background image to look at the various sections, the way Google Maps or something works.
How can I do this, or what is this effect called, so I can google it more in depth. Searching "map" at all gives results about customizing Google Maps. Which isn't what I'm trying to do. I'm thinking it'll involve absolute positioning and and viewports, but I don't know exactly how to code it.
Should I just make a frame?
It looks like Leaflet will probably solve the problem. http://leafletjs.com/
Take this text for example.
I would like to be able to display something like the text above, and let the user mouse over "text" and "example" to get two different ToolTip messages (lets say, "text: noun...definition: ...", and "example: noun...definition" respectively).
In this case, the text is static, so one option would be to put 4 different labels next to each other and style them differently. This might work in most cases, but i also need the text to word-wrap which wouldn't work with individual labels.
Can anyone recommend a solution for this?
It doesn't seem to get much love in our community, but you'll want to look at the TLF Engine. Specifically a TextFlow which has said "primitive" events (eg mouse__, roll__) for links. Style the link appropriately, and in theory you should be close to being done. Since this isn't a Flex-SDK baked-in component, it won't handle the toolTip for you, but it's easy enough to replicate. Create a new ToolTip manually - and add it to the PopUpManager.

I've created a page that shows a map of my complex. The idea is to put icons on the map representing where computers are located, and the user will be able to click on the icon to remote into the machine.
But I also want the icons to be moveable. Everyone should be able to open the page and drag the computer icon around. Is this possible using only ASP.NET?
you can use following options but not limited :)
Google Maps
Bing Maps
bing map sdk
You could use the html <map> and <area> tags along with an image of your complex to create a map that has points on it.
You can see an example of this here, however this is probably overkill for your requirements. All you need to do is set the coord and shape attributes for each area, this will give you an element that would represent the computers.
I'm not sure if you can manipulate these in javascript or jQuery though, as I have never tried, but hopefully this will give you a starting point.
