Android Google Map - Clicked Marker Opens New Activity Or Bigger Window

I've been searching for help on implementing OnMarkerClickListener but nothing I've found has worked. This is my marker below and when clicked it only changes colour(light blue). I

Solution 1:

Marker click events

Don't snap to marker after click in android map v2

Quoting from the above post

You can use an OnMarkerClickListener to listen for click events on the marker. To set this listener on the map, call GoogleMap.setOnMarkerClickListener(OnMarkerClickListener). When a user clicks on a marker, onMarkerClick(Marker) will be called and the marker will be passed through as an argument. This method returns a boolean that indicates whether you have consumed the event (i.e., you want to suppress the default behavior). If it returns false, then the default behavior will occur in addition to your custom behavior. The default behavior for a marker click event is to show its info window (if available) and move the camera such that the marker is centered on the map.

Use OnMarkerClickListener on your marker.

Google Maps API v2: How to make markers clickable?

Example: Works on my phone

    Marker source, destination;
    GoogleMap mMap;

    mMap = ((MapFragment) getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map)).getMap();
    source = mMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions()
            .position(sc)
            .title("MyHome")
            .snippet("Bangalore")
            .icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory.fromResource(R.drawable.pin)));

    destination = mMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions()
            .position(lng)
            .title("MapleBear Head Office")
            .snippet("Jayanager")
            .icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory.fromResource(R.drawable.pin)));

    mMap.setOnMarkerClickListener(marker -> {
        if (marker.getTitle().equals("MyHome")) // if marker source is clicked
            Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, marker.getTitle(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();// display toast
        return true;
    });


Solution 2:

This code handles the maker click event and loads a new layout (XML) with some information:

/**
 * adding individual markers, displaying text on on marker click on a
 * bubble, action of on marker bubble click
 */
private final void addLocationsToMap() {
    int i = 0;
    for (Stores store : storeList) {
        LatLng l = new LatLng(store.getLatitude(), store.getLongtitude());

        MarkerOptions marker = new MarkerOptions()
                .position(l)
                .title(store.getStoreName())
                .snippet("" + i)
                .icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory
                        .defaultMarker(BitmapDescriptorFactory.HUE_GREEN));
        googleMap.addMarker(marker);
        ++i;
    }

    googleMap.setOnInfoWindowClickListener(new OnInfoWindowClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onInfoWindowClick(Marker marker) {

            try {
                popUpWindow.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
                Stores store = storeList.get(Integer.parseInt(marker
                        .getSnippet()));

                // set details
                email.setText(store.getEmail());
                phoneNo.setText(store.getPhone());
                address.setText(store.getAddress());

                // setting test value to phone number
                tempString = store.getPhone();
                SpannableString spanString = new SpannableString(tempString);
                spanString.setSpan(new UnderlineSpan(), 0,
                        spanString.length(), 0);
                phoneNo.setText(spanString);

                // setting test value to email
                tempStringemail = store.getEmail();

                SpannableString spanString1 = new SpannableString(tempStringemail);
                spanString1.setSpan(new UnderlineSpan(), 0, spanString1.length(), 0);
                email.setText(spanString1);

                storeLat = store.getLatitude();
                storelng = store.getLongtitude();

            } catch (ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException e) {
                Log.e("ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException", " Occured");
            }

        }
    });

}

Solution 3:

If you need the event Click in a market,this code it's the solution.

private GoogleMap mGoogleMap;


mGoogleMap.setOnMarkerClickListener(new GoogleMap.OnMarkerClickListener()
        {

            @Override
            public boolean onMarkerClick(Marker arg0) {
                if(arg0 != null && arg0.getTitle().equals(markerOptions2.getTitle().toString())); // if marker  source is clicked
                    Toast.makeText(menu.this, arg0.getTitle(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();// display toast
                return true;
            }

        });

Good Luck


Solution 4:

I suggest use of OnInfoWindowClickListener, it will trigger when you click on marker and then the snippet. Use setTag to attach any object with the marker.

    Marker marker = mMap.addMarker(markerOptions);
    marker.setTag(myObject);

and the listener

      mMap.setOnInfoWindowClickListener(new OnInfoWindowClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onInfoWindowClick(Marker arg0) {

         MyObject mo =  (MyObject )arg0.getTag();


           }
       });

Solution 5:

Below code to used for Kotlin when user click on marker to perform any action

        googleMap!!.setOnMarkerClickListener { marker ->
            if (marker.title == "Marker1")
                Log.d(TAG, "Clicked on Marker1")
            true
        }
