I would need some help on a map I’m working on. The map isn’t particularly complex since I’m a beginner, I have a bunch of markers (will have more once finished) with infowindows that can be opened when clicking the markers or when selecting the corresponding item of a dropdown menu on the HTML side of the page.
What I would like to do and can’t manage to find by myself is to auto center the marker on the map when the infowindow opens (click or select in the HTML menu). I suppose there is some kind of function to assign to the click or infowindow opening event but can’t figure which and how to implement it.
My code :
function initialize() {
var CarteStyles = [
{
featureType: "all",
stylers: [
{ saturation: -50 }
]
},
{
elementType: "labels",
stylers: [
{ visibility: "off" }
]
},
{
featureType: "road",
stylers: [
{ visibility: "simplified" },
{ saturation: -90 }
]
},
{
featureType: "road.local",
"stylers": [
{ "color": "#dbdbd4" }
]
},
{
featureType: "road",
elementType: "labels",
stylers: [
{ visibility: "off"}
]
},
{
featureType: "poi",
stylers: [
{ visibility: "off" }
]
},
{
featureType: "poi.park",
stylers: [
{ visibility: "on" }
]
},
{
featureType: "poi.park",
elementType: "labels",
stylers: [
{ visibility: "off"}
]
}
];
var CarteType = new google.maps.StyledMapType(CarteStyles,
{name: "Carte"});
var mapOptions = {
zoom: 16,
center: new google.maps.LatLng(48.872769, 2.30488),
mapTypeControlOptions: {
mapTypeIds: [google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP,google.maps.MapTypeId.SATELLITE,'Carte'],

}
};
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map_canvas'),
mapOptions);
map.mapTypes.set('Carte', CarteType);
map.setMapTypeId('Carte');

You are already using click handler on your markers, so you just need to add a line to center the map on marker:
