== Tag Attributes ==
 
 
 
This extension defines a <nowiki><googlemap></nowiki> tag. Legal attributes are:
 
 
 
* <code>width</code> of the map (in pixels; defaults to 450)
 
* <code>height</code> of the map (in pixels; defaults to 300)
 
* <code>lat</code> (the center latitude on the map, defaults to my old dorm room :-)
 
* <code>lon</code> (the center longitude on the map)
 
* <code>zoom</code> (the zoom level; 0 is the furthest away, 17 is the closest in, maximum for game maps is 6)
 
* <code>type</code> (legal values are ''game'' (for atitd map T5A shard), ''gameb'' (for atitd map T4B shard), ''normal'' (or, equivalently, ''map''), ''terrain'' ('''new in 0.9.0'''), ''hybrid'', and ''satellite''; defaults to ''game'')
 
* '''Note: Only one type of map be used on a page.  You can not have both the original shard and Bastet shard maps on the same page.'''
 
* <code>controls</code> (''small'' creates +/- zoom buttons, ''medium'' has zoom buttons and pan buttons, ''large'' has pan buttons with a sliding scale for zoom, and ''none'' has no buttons)
 
* <code>selector</code> (show the map/hybrid/satellite selector? Legal values are ''yes'' and ''no'' (default).)
 
* <code>showposition</code> (show the x,y coords under the mouse cursor. Legal values are ''yes'' and ''no'' (default).)
 
* <code>showregion</code> (show the region the mouse cursor (requires showposition=yes). Legal values are ''yes'' and ''no'' (default).)
 
* <code>scale</code> (show the distance scale? Legal values are ''yes'' and ''no'' (default).)
 
* <code>overview</code> (show the inset navigation map? Legal values are ''yes'' and ''no'' (default).)
 
* <code>icons</code> (URL template for custom markers, with "{label}" where the name of the icon will be inserted; defaults to "<nowiki>http://maps.google.com/mapfiles/marker{label}.png</nowiki>")
 
* <code>icon</code> (URL for markers without an icon specified; defaults to http://maps.google.com/mapfiles/marker.png)
 
* <code>doubleclick</code> (what to do when the user double-clicks? legal values are ''recenter'' (default) and ''zoom'')
 
* <code>zoomstyle</code> (legal values are ''fast'' and ''smooth'' (default), also known as continuous zooming; only works in some browsers)
 
* <code>stroke</code> (width of paths, in pixels)
 
* <code>scrollwheel</code> (define scroll wheel behavior; ''nothing'' or ''zoom'' (default))
 
 
 
All attributes are optional.
 
 
 
== A note about icons ==
 
 
 
You can host your own collection of icons on your server, but note that they'll have the same anchor points as Google's default icon. Check out [http://mapki.com/wiki/Icon_Image_Sets Mapki's collection of icon images] for a bunch of icons you can use. To use your icons, add an icon attribute to your googlemap-tags like this
 
 
 
<nowiki><googlemap lat="42.711618" lon="-73.205112" zoom="2" controls="small"
 
icon="http://myserver.com/standardmarker.png"
 
icons="http://myserver.com/markers/marker{label}.png"></nowiki>
 
 
 
[[User:Mayanah|Mayanah]] has some instructions for using an alternate set of icons [http://www.atitd.org/wiki/tale4/User:Mayanah/map here] and a set of [http://www.atitd.org/wiki/tale4/User:Mayanah/map#Mine_Specific Mine Specific] icons on the same page.
 
 
 
The [[Dowsing Map]] page has a set of icons for labeling metal veins.
 
 
 
== Markers ==
 
 
 
In the content of the tag, you can define one marker per line. Each line may or may not start with an icon name in parentheses; unless you set the "icons" attribute, legal icon names are the upper-case letters of the alphabet. The line should then have the latitude, then a comma, optionally a space, then the longitude, then a comma, then a label for the point. The label can include wiki mark-up (and commas). These are all legal:
 
 
 
<nowiki><googlemap lat="42.711618" lon="-73.205112" zoom="2" controls="small">
 
42.711618,-73.205112,here goes the title
 
42.711618, -73.205112, here goes the title, it can contains commas too but not wiki markup
 
(S) 42.711618, -73.205112, here goes the title
 
first line of the caption
 
Second line of the caption, not that the caption can contain wiki markup like [[Resources]]
 
</googlemap></nowiki>
 
 
 
== Paths ==
 
 
 
This feature is currently broken. --[[User:Spatulus|Spatulus]] 14:01, 30 August 2010 (EST)
 
 
 
To connect multiple points with a colored path, prefix them with a line that begins with the color in RGB hex format., e.g.
 
 
 
<nowiki>
 
6#FF330000
 
42.711618,-73.205112
 
42.714779,-73.204544
 
</nowiki>
 
 
 
That will connect the two points with a colored line. Any points not on a line should appear before all points on lines. For example:
 
 
 
42.711618, -73.25112, this point is not on a line
 
43.224024, -70.28301, neither is this one
 
6#FF770077
 
42.202452, -72.83101, this is on a line of color #77077
 
45.214425, -72.48114, so is this
 
6#FF668800
 
42.201324, -70.95811, this starts a second line
 
43.404142, -73.44514, this is also on the second line
 
 
Any text on the same line as, but appearing after, the color specification will be ignored.
 
 
 
== Areas ==
 
 
 
Areas are enclosed paths with a colored filling. The syntax is just like a path, except that the interior color should be specified in parentheses after the path color, like this:
 
 
 
6#770077 (#BB668800)
 
 
 
== Color Specification ==
 
 
 
The color specification includes '''opacity''' and '''stroke''' information, e.g.
 
 
 
<nowiki>6#FF330000</nowiki>
 
 
 
The ''6'' means that the path will be 6 pixels wide. The first two hex digits specify the opacity from #00 (transparent) to #FF (opaque). The final 6 hex digits are a "web color", i.e. #RRGGBB. In the example above the opacity is #FF and the color is #330000.
 
 
 
Similarly for areas, the interior color should be 8 digits instead of 6; the first two digits define the opacity, e.g.
 
 
 
6#770077 (#BB668800)
 
 
 
== Tabbed Info Balloons ==
 
 
 
Each tab should have a plain-text title surrounded by inward-leaning slashes (like /this\) followed by a caption that can include wiki mark-up. Tabs will be attached to the previous marker. Example:
 
 
 
<nowiki>
 
  45.214425, -72.48114
 
  /Info\
 
  This is where Ulysses Grant is buried
 
  /Directions\
 
  [http://maps.google.com Click here] to get driving directions
 
  Or just drive in a random direction
 
  </nowiki>
 
 
 
That will create a point whose info balloon has two tabs. Note that you can put as much or as little space as you'd like between the title and the caption to make the syntax more readable.
 
 
 
If a point has a regular caption ''and'' tabbed captions, clicking the point will only show the tabbed captions.
 
 
 
==Good Default Settings==
 
===All of Egypt, No Borders===
 
<googlemap lat=1010 lon=0 zoom=1 width=256 height=512>
 
</googlemap>
 
===All of Egypt, Square===
 
<googlemap lat=1010 lon=0 zoom=1 width=512 height=512>
 
</googlemap>
 
 
 
----
 
 
 
===All of Egypt, Square with showposition=yes===
 
<googlemap lat=1010 lon=0 zoom=1 width=512 height=512 showposition=yes>
 
</googlemap>
 
 
 
----
 
 
 
===All of Egypt, Square with showposition=yes and showregion=yes===
 
<googlemap lat=1010 lon=0 zoom=1 width=512 height=512 showposition=yes showregion=yes>
 
</googlemap>
 
 
 
----
 
 
 
And a real map of egypt:
 
<googlemap lat="29.980624" lon="31.134653" zoom="14" controls="medium" type="hybrid" selector="yes">
 
29.980624, 31.134653, PYRAMIDS
 
</googlemap>
