Initiate Map upon changing Address

    Hi, I’ve been trying to use the code in the FAQ section to update my map’s info. ( Lat and Lng ).

    I did this to see the available function that I can use but I think I’m not using the correct method here.

    $j('.cf7-google-map-container.banner-coverage-area').on('drag.cf7-google-map update.cf7-google-map', function(e){
         //the event has 5 address fields, e.address.line, e.address.city, e.address.pin, e.address.state, e.address.country.
         //some fields may be empty.
         $j('#search-covarage-area').val( e.address.line + e.address.city + e.address.pin + e.address.state + e.address.country ); 
        e.gmap3.map({
            center: center,
            zoom: 18,
            mapTypeId : google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
        });
        
        console.log(e);
    });

    I want to do it vice versa. When I drag the marker the data attributes should change to the correct location, same with the address field too.

    I tried .marker .map but the parameters seems incorrect.

    Thank you!

    Hi, so I was able to play around and get the function that I needed. Thanks for the FAQs you provided. I’m now encountering this strange issue I think that I can call.

    I have a main location. What I am doing is to get the lat() and lng() value then when I move the marker or search a new location I will gather the lat() and lng() of that new location. I combined those values (lat1(), lng1(), lat2(), lng2()) to get its distance. The issue is the distance in Meters and Kilometers seems not accurate. I’m always getting a value of 7.(what number comes). Even if the new location is far from the main location the meters and km value is incorrect.

    Thanks!

    it’s not clear what you are trying to achieve.

    .on('drag.cf7-google-map update.cf7-google-map',

    you’re triggering your script on 2 events that exposes different type of map properties, so it is bound to fail.

    You need to understand how javascript events exposes the various map properties and objects. (see FAQ #11)

    well this is really beyond the scope of support for this plugin. I would help you if I knew the answer, but I have never tried working out distances. You should post your question on Stackoverflow for help ??
