I am utilizing MapBox GL JS to display Pins. I am able to display pins on a Mapbox map, no issues with that. I am looking to add some custom javascript code based upon the users "searched" location using the MapBox Search input box they provide.
I have researched all of Mapbox documentation and have not found anywhere where I would be able to implement some custom javascript code based on when a user searches.
Has anyone else come across this before?
Thank you for your time.
Is there a google maps api way to display this exact kind of text label next to a marker? I know how to create the marker and a bad looking label, but I was hoping to create labels like the ones that appear on google maps already:
Montes Grill & Pub for instance, or is this some css/html/js stuff I have to do?
Edit: I am following this tutorial.
It looks like Google Embed API gives your that option when you do a search.
I am trying to achieve what the following website has: http://clicky.com/stats/?site_id=32020#/stats/locale-map?site_id=32020
You can double click on a country then view that country's states/provinces on the map. This is a really neat feature however I cannot find docs regarding it.
The normal world map looks like this:
http://www.highcharts.com/studies/world-map.htm
So how can I add this 'zooming' functionality which allows me to view sub-states in countries?
At this moment maps are only beta project, all of studies are available here https://github.com/highslide-software/highcharts.com/tree/master/studies. You can try to catch click event on SVG element, and then load "new map" to achieve similar effect.
I'd like to bring in some data using a KML layers in google maps and it looks like google take the hard work out of clicking on each data point and showing the 'title, description, etc' for me, because of this though there is no options to define the style of an info box like normal.
Does anyone know how you can define the style of an info box that comes as part of introducing a KML layer?
Try this, this might help you.

I'm trying to achieve an effect similar to this:
Notice how France is brighter than the other countries. It has the 'focus'. I've been exploring the API and it looks like I'm supposed use kmlLayers to achieve this effect. Is this correct? If so, how do I leverage or even find kml to do this? How else could I do this?
Thanks
I found this can be done with polygons and 'holes'. Google has this pentagon example
The only down side is the polygon needs to be drawn by hand (maybe there's a database of country outlines?) I used this tool to assist with the manual drawing for now.
The information at these links will help you, I think:
KML of the World Countries as created by Valery Hronusov
KML of the World Capitals as created by Filipumme
this demo shows you how: https://google-developers.appspot.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/layer-kml
aight, got kml for france; working demo: http://dev.bowdenweb.com/maps/gmaps/layer-kml-02.html
