Marker click event

[Michael]

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone knows how I can catch a click event when a user clicks on a marker. There are click and shapeClick events but dosent seem to be a marker specific event.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
M

Hi Michael,

At this point Kendo UI Map does not raise a click events for the markers. As a possible workaround I can suggest displaying markers.tooltip on "click" and attach a handler to the show event: 

$("#map").kendoMap({
  //....
  markers: [{
     //....
     tooltip: {
        content: "Austin, TX",
        showOn: "click",
        show: onShow
     }
  }]
});

function onShow(){
   //....
}

Iliana,
does this work with 'type: "tile"' types or ONLY 'type: "shape"'

see my http://dojo.telerik.com/@wcaulton/iLOCA using tile but no location coordinates showing.

Hi Warren,

I am glad to inform you that markerClick event is already available. For your convenience here is the updated example.

Thanks for the update, I did not get the marker info as expected. I have another example here.

Again my question is: Does the type:  "shape" or "tile" make a difference? It appears to.

Thanks for the help.

Hi Warren,

I am not quite sure what the expected info is, however in the markerClick event you have the marker instance. Please take a look at this updated example and let me know if I am missing something.

Hi, Im using markerClick, but I see no way of getting to the dataItem.  I want to get to the source data bound to the marker.   How do I do this?

Hello Tarik,

To get the dataItem of the marker, use the e.marker parameter of the event handler. More information about this is available here - https://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/dataviz/ui/map/events/markerclick

For example, check this Dojo - https://dojo.telerik.com/ediXeDaL

I hope this helps.
