Multimap Open API V1.2 Example

Context Menu Example *new*

The Options topic demonstrated how to enable and disable the Context Menu on your map. This example shows how you can also determine which options appear when a user clicks on a map for which the Context Menu has been activated.

The default Context Menu items are "Zoom in", "Zoom out" and "Move map". You can remove these default items or add new items to the Context Menu.

Function(s) introduced:

MMMenuWidget: addItemsJSON() *updated*

What You Should See

If you view this in your browser you should see a Multimap draggable map centered on Boston, Massachusetts, USA, at zoom factor 15.

1. When you right-click on the map, the Context Menu appears on the map showing its three default items.
2. When you click on the "Add new item..." link, then right-click on the map, the Context Menu appears on the map showing the extra item "Add marker". Clicking on this item adds a marker to the map.
3. When you click on the "Remove item..." link, then right-click on the map, the Context Menu appears on the map showing only the three default items again.
