I want to make an application that uses google map but i have some doubts…
Can i customize the image markers?
Can i customize the infoWindows and add buttons?
Could you post and example? There is nothing in the documentation about this… [import]uid: 113117 topic_id: 30149 reply_id: 330149[/import]
And…Can’t I add a pin to the map at the specified locations?
Documentation says, (coming soon)

You can add markers and set up their annotations via the [lua]addMarker[/lua] function. Please see the following API documentation.
http://docs.coronalabs.com/api/library/native/newMapView.html
http://docs.coronalabs.com/api/type/Map/addMarker.html
Also, please see sample project “Interface/MapView” that is included with the Corona SDK for an example on how to use the maps API.
Unfortunately, you cannot customize markers. Corona only supports the default marker look. [import]uid: 32256 topic_id: 30149 reply_id: 120766[/import]
People who make applications with map, need icon and windows customizations…
Another unuseful component. [import]uid: 113117 topic_id: 30149 reply_id: 120780[/import]

I agree with noeguer. As a developer who has integrated Google maps in many different technologies, the ability to have a custom infowindow and icon is critical. Overlays would be nice too. But a marker that can be clicked on but doesn’t do anything other display text is fairly useless. Plus I can’t even get a marker added. I tried this code below and the marker never appears. Thoughts?
local options = { title=“Displayed Title”, subtitle=“subtitle text” }
myMap:addMarker( 37.331692, -122.030456, options )
