remove a single overlay in googlemaps

does anyone know if it is possible to remove the overlay 开发者_开发百科where I previously drew a polygon? I don't want to use clearOverlays because it will remove all the markers also, instead I want to just hide the markers. Thanks, Richard

Yes. Did you keep a reference to the overlay in question? Then just call map.removeOverlay()

You question could be less conflicted. If you want to hide an overlay, say a marker, do as other poster said, hide() it.

polys are overlays, they are not married to markers, which are overlays as well.

Have you tried the removeOverlay method of the GMap object?

removeOverlay(overlay:GOverlay)

You can also just hide a marker without removing it from the map.

Take a look at the GoogleMaps References:

There you can find the function hide() which should do the job.
