i am using Google Drawing tools for drawing polygon/rectangle on google maps, now i need to show markers that falls inside the drawn polygon and for that i am using geometry.poly.containsLocation method which takes a point(latLng) and an array of polygon points. if i use maps.polygon I can get polygon points via poly.getPath() but because i am using Google Drawing tools which uses maps.drawing.DrawingManager/google.maps.drawing.OverlayType.POLYGON so not sure how to find points here. Thanks
var drawingManager = new google.maps.drawing.DrawingManager({
drawingMode: google.maps.drawing.OverlayType.POLYGON,
drawingControl: true,
drawingControlOptions: {
position: google.maps.ControlPosition.TOP_CENTER,
drawingModes: [
google.maps.drawing.OverlayType.MARKER,
google.maps.drawing.OverlayType.CIRCLE,
google.maps.drawing.OverlayType.POLYGON,
google.maps.drawing.OverlayType.POLYLINE,
google.maps.drawing.OverlayType.RECTANGLE
]
},
markerOptions: {
icon: 'images/car-icon.png'
},
circleOptions: {
fillColor: '#ffff00',
fillOpacity: 1,
strokeWeight: 5,
clickable: false,
editable: true,
zIndex: 1
},
polygonOptions: {
fillColor: '#BCDCF9',
fillOpacity: 0.5,
strokeWeight: 2,
strokeColor:'#57ACF9',
clickable: false,
editable: false,
zIndex: 1
}
});
console.log(drawingManager)
drawingManager.setMap(map)

code snippet:
It looks like the
DrawingManager
will fire events when the user finishes drawing something and the event handler will receive a normalgoogle.maps.Polygon
,google.maps.Rectangle
, and so on. I would try that.Here's a documentation link.
A slightly different solution than what geocodezip proposes, but using the same API calls:
