Hi.

New features added to component:

* added language field to set displaying map objects (streets…) in definite language
* geolocation button when drawing route on map is active mark your location as start point and draw route to your place
* add support Google Infographics (Dynamic Icons) for placemark

————-
1 – Go to map and define language, for example, ru
And you get map in Russian. You can use this if you don’t want that map is displayed by browser settings, for example, with multilanguage support on site.

2 – If you use draw route to your place feature, now if you press geolocation button, there is detecting your location and this point will be as a start point in route to your place

3 – You can define your placemark icon as a Dynamic Icon:
– go to placemark details
– “Appearance properties” slider
– set “Marker” list to Infographics: Drop, for example
– set “Infographics Type” field to chst=d_weather&chld=taped_y|sunny|Barcelona|max+25°C|min+15°C
And save and look at map.

Note: bottom center of icon – this is your placemark location. Be sure when use bubbles with left or right tail
