Edit New Placemarker Fields

Hi,
great component.
Ist realy awesome!

I just installed it an got some Little Problems.
How could i edit the fields for a new placemarker at the frontend.
The users shouldn`t be able to set a Icon or choose wether the title or discription should be displayed.
It would like to set all Settings for a new placemarker at the backend.
Or is it there and i just didn`t find it?!

Next Little Problem:
I dont get it, what the Groups and categoriers are for?
Groups couldnt get put into categories and reverse.

but categoriers could be stacked.

How could i make something like:
Group: Catgorie1
Categorie2
Categorie3

Group2: Categorie1

Hi Fenris

You can't control everything for frontend entering
As for icons - "Show Icon Type Selector for New Placemark"
And in this case "default#" will be set
You can't control (hide) placemark content, group, category...

As for categories and Groups
Categories - it is joomla's entity. As for placemarks - you can show placemarks from different maps in newone by select categories for display.
Groups - it is mine, it is flat entity (not hierarchy), and you can show placemarks from different maps by group too. But it is "advanced" attribute:
- you can override placemark icond just set group and apropriate group property
- you can set different cluster icons by group
- you can use marker manager(show/hide) by zoom
- you can show/hide placemarks by group list (look at demosite)
- disable show placemarks by disable (unpublish) just it's group
- and the other features

Thanks for your fast reply.

So i didnt need the categories in the "new placemark window".
Is there any way i can remove that in the sourcecode?
I also need to get rid of how the marker is displayed and what the infoscreen should contain.
Standardsettings are just perfekt for me, so the users dont need to set it up.

Maybe you can add a way to set These Parameters in backend?
It would be also nice if the users could insert a URL for each placemark where additional informationes could be find.

Hi.
I'll think of it, and try to add this in nearest releases (in 1-2 weeks).

But not for convenient insert image URL (may be with upload). It's complicated today for me to do that.

As for addition URL to reference to additional info - I'll think of it, but I need to read how to escape code injection in this case

Maybe i wirte this wrong.
I just miss a field to insert a URL just like the Image.

But a method to upload a Image would be great!

Got another littl Problem.
How can i set a Group as Default Group for new markers?

When the mousecursor is over an Icon at the grouplist at the frontend, it would be nice if there where a tooltip with the Name of the Group.
So maybe we could reduce the grouplist to the Icons at the frontend.
