Handling marker selections and other user events

Last updated: 1/21/2021

Detecting the user tapping a marker or an infowindow is part of the Google Maps SDK for iOS. Assign myGMSMapView.delegate and implementing the methods: mapView.didTapMarker(marker: GMSMarker) and mapView.didTapInfoWindowOfMarker(marker: GMSMarker)

func mapView(_ mapView: GMSMapView, didTap marker: GMSMarker) -> Bool {
    let location = mapControl?.getLocation(marker)
    if location != nil {
        myTextLabel.text = location!.name
    }
    return false
}

func mapView(_ mapView: GMSMapView, didTapInfoWindowOf marker: GMSMarker) -> Bool {
    let location = mapControl?.getLocation(marker)
    if location != nil {
        myTextLabel.text = location!.name
    }
    return false
}
