GPolygon is here
Published by Cam January 17th, 2007 in The BookThe API team has just announced the existence of a new API feature (since 2.69): The GPolygon.
Needless to say this is a feature we’ve been expecting for a while. A transparent, filled, polygon is something that many people have been trying to do for a while now, none of which were more than polyline or overlay hacks. The nearest we came was the state overlay demo that Mike explained in September.
I’m hoping that Mike can revisit the shape files example and do a GPolygon demo as a compliment to the custom tiles one from September. The logic of the shape-file parsing is still valid, but the rendering mechanism would be completely new.
Enjoy!
Really a nice thing.Transparency was required.Thx for the update
Well done on the book, it reads well. Is there a limit to how many verticies a polygon could have?
I am working on a project where I need to map numerous irregular polygons by clicking on the google map. For example a person would click around a valley to identify the limits of the valley. The clicks would be captured into a database and a transparent filled polygon would appear once the polygon was closed. I am going to attach comments to the polygons.
Has anyone seen a free or paid script for this? Is so email me. Peace. - Jim

I have to place a image on Google map as
GGroundOverlay. i am successful in placing the image over google map
but problem is image size/zoom level is not in sync with that of the
google map. I think it’s the problem with the bounds I am giving, how
and where can I get the boundary data(southwest and north east) for
the image?. Is there any way to get the boundaries dynamically?. Please help me to go forward with this.
