Google Maps API v3 - GIcon is not defined
18,821
GIcon
is not supported by Version 3, and does not appear in the documentation you link to.
var image = 'beachflag.png';
var myLatLng = new google.maps.LatLng(-33.890542, 151.274856);
var beachMarker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: myLatLng,
map: map,
icon: image
});
You can specify an image to use directly, you don't need a helper object like Version 2's GIcon
. However, if you want non-standard sizes etc you will need to use a MarkerImage
object as described in the documentation at https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/overlays?hl=de-DE#ComplexIcons
(Version 2's GIcon
has its equivalent as the optional MarkerImage
in Version 3)

I know they are some issues from v2 to v3 what can i do here to fix it?
GIcon is not supported by v3?// Google-Map icon object var gMapIcon = new GIcon(G_DEFAULT_ICON); //change to new google.maps.MarkerImage();??? // does icon exist if ( mapElements[lMapElementIndex]['icon'].toString().length > 0) { gMapIcon.image = html_entity_decode(mapElements[lMapElementIndex]['icon']); gMapIcon.shadow = ""; iconHeight = mapElements[lMapElementIndex]['iconheight']; iconWidth = mapElements[lMapElementIndex]['iconwidth']; gMapIcon.iconSize = new GSize(iconWidth,iconHeight); gMapIcon.iconAnchor = new GPoint(0,0); gMapIcon.infoWindowAnchor = new GPoint(15,10); } var markerOptions = { icon: gMapIcon //change to image? }; var marker = new google.maps.Marker(point,markerOptions);
