Feature Request: Interactive, Responsive HTML Code on map

[strxetics]

Hello,

is there a way to render zoom-responsive, interactive Components on the map?
If so that would be a great feature. E.g. for a user placing notes on the map a in resizable Rich-Text-Editor.

Thanks in advance
and best regards

Stefan

I think the best way is to use plain Vaadin features to accomplish that. You can use Window to be placed on the map, AbsoluteLayout (put both map and the overlay component there) or work with CSS to put the components there. Do you have a more detailed wireframe or some other illustration what you'd like to accomplish? I'm pretty sure it is possible today, but we'll just need an example.

What i want is to render a Vaadin component on the map, which has an anchor at a location. So that, if i move the map, the component moves with it.

E.g. I put a component with two buttons(compared to a Marker which is only one button) to New York, then i move the map to Turku ;), and as soon as New York leaves the map, my component is also not visible anymore.

As far as i understand, if i were to do it the way you described, the component would be static?!

Thanks for your help!
