Center mark on google maps api v3

Question

I would like to add a center mark on the google maps api v3. This would be a mark with low opacity that is constantly in the center of the map. Here is my dilemma.

1. I cannot add it in an absolutely positioned div or image, with high z-index, outside of the map div because it would prevent clicking markers in the map div.

2. I cannot add it as a marker because it would would move with the map. I do not want to reposition it with the dragend event because it would still move during the drag.

3. I don't believe I can use an overlay because this would always move with the map. I could be wrong on this one.

Answer 1

You could do one of these:

• Reposition marker on bounds_changed event's handler
• Reposition marker on center_changed event's handler
