MarkerLabelinterface

google.maps.MarkerLabelinterface

These options specify the appearance of a marker label. A marker label is a string (often a single character) which will appear inside the marker. If you are using it with a custom marker, you can reposition it with thelabelOrigin property in theIcon class.

Properties
`text`	Type: `string` The text to be displayed in the label.
`classNameoptional`	Type: `stringoptional` Default:`''` (empty string) The className property of the label's element (equivalent to the element's class attribute). Multiple space-separated CSS classes can be added. The font color, size, weight, and family can only be set via the other properties of`MarkerLabel`. CSS classes should not be used to change the position nor orientation of the label (e.g. using translations and rotations) if also usingmarker collision management.

MarkerShapeinterface

google.maps.MarkerShapeinterface

This object defines the clickable region of a marker image. The shape consists of two properties —type andcoord — which define the non-transparent region of an image.

Properties
`type`	Type: `string` Describes the shape's type and can be`circle`,`poly` or`rect`.
`coordsoptional`	Type: `Array<number>optional` The format of this attribute depends on the value of the`type` and follows the w3 AREA`coords` specification found at http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/struct/objects.html#adef-coords. The`coords` attribute is an array of integers that specify the pixel position of the shape relative to the top-left corner of the target image. The coordinates depend on the value of`type` as follows: -`circle`: coords is`[x1,y1,r]` where x1,y2 are the coordinates of the center of the circle, and r is the radius of the circle. -`poly`: coords is`[x1,y1,x2,y2...xn,yn]` where each x,y pair contains the coordinates of one vertex of the polygon. -`rect`: coords is`[x1,y1,x2,y2]` where x1,y1 are the coordinates of the upper-left corner of the rectangle and x2,y2 are the coordinates of the lower-right coordinates of the rectangle.

Properties

type

Type: string

Describes the shape's type and can becircle,poly orrect.

coordsoptional

Type: Array<number>optional

The format of this attribute depends on the value of thetype and follows the w3 AREAcoords specification found at http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/struct/objects.html#adef-coords.
Thecoords attribute is an array of integers that specify the pixel position of the shape relative to the top-left corner of the target image. The coordinates depend on the value oftype as follows:

Properties
`path`	Type: `SymbolPath\|string` The symbol's path, which is a built-in symbol path, or a custom path expressed usingSVG path notation. Required.
`anchoroptional`	Type: `Pointoptional` Default:`google.maps.Point(0,0)` The position of the symbol relative to the marker or polyline. The coordinates of the symbol's path are translated left and up by the anchor's x and y coordinates respectively. The position is expressed in the same coordinate system as the symbol's path.
`fillColoroptional`	Type: `stringoptional` The symbol's fill color. All CSS3 colors are supported except for extended named colors. For symbol markers, this defaults to 'black'. For symbols on polylines, this defaults to the stroke color of the corresponding polyline.
