Generating markers with grid's datasource

[Aitor]

Hello everyone!

Is it possible to bind some of the fields in the grid´s datasource to a marker layer on a map?

For example:

For every registry in my grid, take "Text", "longitude" and "latitude" fields and bind them to a markers layer on a map, "text" being the marker's title, and ["longitude", "latitude"] being the marker's latlng.

 

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hello,

The marker layer will normally expect the location to be available as a [lat, long] array.
We can get around that by handling the markerCreated event and setting the location there.

I've just noticed that the API reference for the Marker class is missing for some reason. Will check it out.
       markerCreated: function(e) {
          var dataItem = e.marker.dataItem;
          var location = new kendo.dataviz.map.Location(dataItem.latitude, dataItem.longitude);
          e.marker.location(location);
        }

See this snippet for an example.
