descriptionWindowHeight

X position of description window. In case it is not set, window will be placed near the mouse pointer.

fixedSize

Type booleanDefault trueInherited from MapObject

Specifies if the object should change the size together with the map or keep fixed size. This applies for objects with lat and long properties set, as they move together with the map.

groupId

Type stringInherited from MapObject

Id of a group. You can group MapObjects to groups. Grouped objects will change color together with this object when you roll-over it or click it. You can show/hide them using showGroup(groupId) and hideGroup(groupId) methods of AmMap class. You can also use map.zoomToGroup(groupId) methot to zoom-in the map so that all grouped objects are visible.

images

Type arrayInherited from MapObject

Array of MapImage objects.

lines

Type arrayInherited from MapObject

Array of MapLine objects.

linkToObject

Type MapObjectInherited from MapObject

linkToObject can be a reference or id of some other MapObject - MapArea, MapImage or MapLine. It can also be a reference to another DataSet (but not an id). Then user clicks on this object the application would zoom-in to this objects' zoom position (if it is set) and then act as if the linkToObject was clicked. This can also be used for selecting the object you want to be selected right after the map is initialized, as DataSet extends MapObject class, you can specify linkToObject for your DataSet. When you link to another DataSet, you can build drill-down maps.

mouseEnabled

Type booleanDefault trueInherited from MapObject

Set this to false to make the object be irresponsive to any interactions like hover or click events.

objectType

Type stringInherited from MapObject

Read-only, type of the Object. Possible values are: "DataSet", "MapImage", "MapLine" and "MapArea".

passZoomValuesToTarget

Type booleanDefault falseInherited from MapObject

Specifies if current zoom values should be passed to target MapObject. Useful when building drill down maps.

remainVisible

Type booleanDefault trueInherited from MapObject

Specifies if the MapObject and other objects of the same level should remain visible if it was clicked and it has children MapObjects.

rollOverColor

Type stringInherited from MapObject

Roll over color of of the object.

zoomLevel

Type numberInherited from MapObject

Specifies map scale to which map should be rescaled when this object is clicked.

zoomLongitude

Type numberInherited from MapObject

Specifies longitude to which map should be moved when this object is clicked.

zoomX

Type numberInherited from MapObject

Specifies x position (in percents of stage width) to which map should be moved when this object is clicked. You can also use zoomLat and zoomLong instead of zoomY and zoomY.

zoomY

Type numberInherited from MapObject

Specifies y position (in percents of stage height) to which map should be moved when this object is clicked. You can also use zoomLat and zoomLong instead of zoomY and zoomY.
