A few clarifications

Hi, i came across your component and looks very very promising and even better to find that its for free!! you are doing awesome

I would like to clarify before i actually try this out a few points if you would be kind enough to answer them:

1. Can this be used to show only one country? the neighbouring countries should not appear.
2. Can the admin mark spots in an area and link it to an article? If zoom-out, the links becomes a cluster and is seen as one. i believe this is possible as seen in the demo but for the linking.
3. Can the admin create categories like bikers, cyclists, cars, etc and mark the area with different markers? For example, my visitors should be able to click any of the categories and the marked spots are shown accordingly. For cyclist, red spots. For Cars, blue spots, etc.
4. lastly, what is the difference between yandexmap and googlemap?

I hope you didn't find my post stupid and annoying. thank you

Hi nikita.

1 - I think you can't hide the others countries, I don't see Google examples with only one country. I think you can fix borders for map, but I don't check this.
But! If you create you own map, ie - get country image and create your map tiles, you can create your own map type and use in component. You can check this case - on Demo Site - NZ Topomaps

2 - If I understand you right - can be placemark as link...
Yes, you can see value for placemark field "Action by Click", there is open link
See demo On top left of map. Green fishing icon opens link. (You set Site link URL on placemark and set "Action by Click")
Clusterer works for all placemarks

3 - You can:
3.1 - create placemark groups, set it for placemarks and use feature: placemark management by groups, but it only in component
3.2.1 - create placemark groups, set it for placemarks and call from plugin (in article) by placemark group id
3.2.2 - create categories (in categories tab), set it for placemarks and call from plung by category id

Ie 3.2 - you can create your own list (or menu and etc) with opening for example definite article, and in this article you can call plugin for definite category or group


4 - Yandex Maps - it is Russian JavaScript API Map (it needs API KEY like GoogleMaps v2)

Maps
API

Awesome \m/

Thank you very much. Will play around with it
