Marker Icons

TransparentMaps uses different colored marker icons (pins) to mark the locations of properties on the map.

The color of icon that is used is determined by numeric Open-Realty property class ID for each given listing. Located in the /transparentmaps/icons folder are 25 colored .png icon images. The numeric name of the image (1.png, 2.png, 3.png, etc..) corresponds to the property class ID the listing belongs to. You can change the names of the icons if you wish so you can have a specific color of icon used to denote a specific property class.

If you prefer to use your own icons you may replace the default icons with ones of your choice. Custom icons must use the same numeric naming convention and be PNG image files. Your icon sizes are configurable via the TMAPS General Map tab, however all of your icons must be the same size but they can be larger or smaller than the default icon sizes.

NOTE: If you do not have an image named with a number for each property class id then no marker will be displayed for any property classes do not have a corresponding image.
