JavaScript/jQuery Map Options
An object defining configuration properties for the Map UI component.
See Also
accessKey
Specifies the shortcut key that sets focus on the UI component.
The value of this property will be passed to the accesskey
attribute of the HTML element that underlies the UI component.
activeStateEnabled
Specifies whether the UI component changes its visual state as a result of user interaction.
The UI component switches to the active state when users press down the primary mouse button. When this property is set to true, the CSS rules for the active state apply. You can change these rules to customize the component.
Use this property when you display the component on a platform whose guidelines include the active state change for UI components.
apiKey
Keys to authenticate the component within map providers.
If you have more than one map provider in your application, specify the keys in the object fields as shown below. Otherwise, you can assign the key directly to the apiKey property.
jQuery
$(function() { $("#mapContainer").dxMap({ // ... apiKey: { bing: "MY_BING_MAPS_KEY", google: "MY_GOOGLE_MAPS_KEY", googleStatic: "MY_GOOGLE_STATIC_MAPS_KEY" } }); });
Angular
<dx-map ... > <dxo-api-key bing="MY_BING_MAPS_KEY" google="MY_GOOGLE_MAPS_KEY" googleStatic="MY_GOOGLE_STATIC_MAPS_KEY"> </dxo-api-key> </dx-map>
import { Component } from '@angular/core'; @Component({ selector: 'app-root', templateUrl: './app.component.html', styleUrls: ['./app.component.css'] }) export class AppComponent { }
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'; import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'; import { AppComponent } from './app.component'; import { DxMapModule } from 'devextreme-angular'; @NgModule({ declarations: [ AppComponent ], imports: [ BrowserModule, DxMapModule ], providers: [ ], bootstrap: [AppComponent] }) export class AppModule { }
Vue
<template> <DxMap ... > <DxApiKey bing="MY_BING_MAPS_KEY" google="MY_GOOGLE_MAPS_KEY" googleStatic="MY_GOOGLE_STATIC_MAPS_KEY" /> </DxMap> </template> <script> import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css'; import DxMap, { DxApiKey } from 'devextreme-vue/map'; export default { components: { DxMap, DxApiKey } } </script>
React
import React from 'react'; import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css'; import Map, { ApiKey } from 'devextreme-react/map'; const App = () => { return ( <Map ... > <ApiKey bing="MY_BING_MAPS_KEY" google="MY_GOOGLE_MAPS_KEY" googleStatic="MY_GOOGLE_STATIC_MAPS_KEY" /> </Map> ); } export default App;
autoAdjust
Specifies whether the UI component automatically adjusts center and zoom property values when adding a new marker or route, or if a new UI component contains markers or routes by default.
If autoAdjust is enabled, zoom is set to the maximum value allowing all markers and routes to be displayed at the same time. The center is changed so that markers and routes are aligned with the UI component's center. Set the autoAdjust property to false to disable this behavior.
Note that the zoom level can only be automatically decreased to display all markers and routes. If the current zoom level allows all routes and markers to be displayed on the map, it remains unchanged.
center
An object, a string, or an array specifying which part of the map is displayed at the UI component's center using coordinates. The UI component can change this value if autoAdjust is enabled.
You can specify the center value in one of the following formats:
- { lat: 40.749825, lng: -73.987963}
- "40.749825, -73.987963"
- [40.749825, -73.987963]
- "Brooklyn Bridge,New York,NY"
controls
Specifies whether or not map UI component controls are available.
Assign a Boolean value to this property to enable or disable all controls at once - both the map navigation control and the map type control.
disabled
Specifies whether the UI component responds to user interaction.
elementAttr
Specifies the global attributes to be attached to the UI component's container element.
jQuery
$(function(){ $("#mapContainer").dxMap({ // ... elementAttr: { id: "elementId", class: "class-name" } }); });
Angular
<dx-map ... [elementAttr]="{ id: 'elementId', class: 'class-name' }"> </dx-map>
import { DxMapModule } from "devextreme-angular"; // ... export class AppComponent { // ... } @NgModule({ imports: [ // ... DxMapModule ], // ... })
Vue
<template> <DxMap ... :element-attr="mapAttributes"> </DxMap> </template> <script> import DxMap from 'devextreme-vue/map'; export default { components: { DxMap }, data() { return { mapAttributes: { id: 'elementId', class: 'class-name' } } } } </script>
React
import React from 'react'; import Map from 'devextreme-react/map'; class App extends React.Component { mapAttributes = { id: 'elementId', class: 'class-name' } render() { return ( <Map ... elementAttr={this.mapAttributes}> </Map> ); } } export default App;
focusStateEnabled
Specifies whether the UI component can be focused using keyboard navigation.
height
Specifies the UI component's height.
This property accepts a value of one of the following types:
Number
The height in pixels.String
A CSS-accepted measurement of height. For example,"55px"
,"20vh"
,"80%"
,"inherit"
.Function (deprecated since v21.2)
Refer to the W0017 warning description for information on how you can migrate to viewport units.
hint
Specifies text for a hint that appears when a user pauses on the UI component.
hoverStateEnabled
Specifies whether the UI component changes its state when a user pauses on it.
markerIconSrc
A URL pointing to the custom icon to be used for map markers.
To set a custom icon for an individual marker, specify the iconSrc field of the corresponding marker data source object.
markers[]
An array of markers displayed on a map.
If you use the Knockout approach when working with the Map UI component, you can pass an observable array to the markers property to easily manage markers.
