Setting width of InfoWindow

[patrickgordon]

I'm aware that you can create an extension of the InfoWindow which is an InfoBox but all I really want to do is set the minWidth of the InfoWindow.

marker.infowindow({
    "content" => event.name,
   "maxWidth" => 200
})

This does not work as it seems marker.infowindow can only take a string. Is there a way to extend the InfoWindow (without making an InfoBox)?

Its not part of the options, see https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/reference?hl=FR#InfoWindow

But since you can put html inside, I guess you can play with css here.

I always use InfoBox so I've no additional feedback, sorry

maxWidth is specified as a property two below content. Am I missing something?

but all I really want to do is set the minWidth of the InfoWindow. you want max or min? :)

Well boy is my face red. That said, maxWidth doesn't work either.

I guess I'm OK with using an infobox but I cant get the arrow to display at all

to sum up:

• maxWidth could easily be patched
• minWidth does not exist
• does css handle those? I guess

I dont know what arrow you're talking about with infobox

OK so screenshot time.. If I use an infobox I am unable to render an arrow. I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong...

What I want is something like:

Here's the infobox code:

    infobox: (boxText)->
        content: boxText
        pixelOffset: new google.maps.Size(-60, -80)
        boxStyle:
            padding: "10px"
            borderRadius: "5px"
            borderWidth: "1px"
            borderColor: "#ccc"
            backgroundColor: "#fff"
            minWidth: "50px"
            maxWidth: "300px"
            minHeight: "20px"
            arrowSize: "10px"
            arrowPosition: "50%"
            arrowStyle: "2"
