Removing a Marker in Google Maps API v3
google-maps-api-3, google-maps-markers, javascript
Solution
There is no removeOverlay function on the map object. Sounds like you've got only one marker, why use an array? Just change this:
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, "dblclick", function() {
map.removeOverlay(marker);
});
to this:
marker.addListener("dblclick", function() {
marker.setMap(null);
});
Problem
I'm trying to remove a marker that was initialized like this: ``` marker = new google.maps.Marker({ position: latLng, map: map, draggable: true, animation: google.maps.Animation.DROP, title: 'Marker 1', icon: redPin }); google.maps.event.addListener(marker, "click", function() { showMarkerDialog(marker.position, "marker"); }); google.maps.event.addListener(marker, "dblclick", function() { // Add a alert: Are you sure you want to remove this marker? map.removeOverlay(marker); }); ``` Everything works perfectly except that when I double click it to remove what I get on the Error Console is this: TypeError: Object # has no method 'removeOverlay' What am I doing wrong?
