Hello, is possible to limit quering for one country only?

sgruhier commented 12 years ago

You can't do that with google but you can limit to a given bounds

https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/geocoding/#Viewports

the doc says: Note that biasing only prefers results within the bounds; if more relevant results exist outside of these bounds, they may be included

If you are interested by adding that options, please fork and pull a request Thanks

Well, I'm trying to limit autocomplete hints for one country only (or, at least, to prefer one country) - Poland.

In example - I'm searching for "Kraków". [Cracow, Poland]

I'm typing: 'Kra' and there are such hints as: Krae, Tajlandia (Thailand) Kerang Airport (KRA), Kerang Wiktoria 3579, Australia

I have to type 'Krakó' to get a proper hint: Kraków, Polska (Poland)

I just don't need autocompleting with cities from Thailand, USA, France, etc. - i need cities from Poland.

Setting region (http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false&region=pl) or address/bounds influences only on results, not autocomplete hints.

Could you give me any hints?

(sorry for my english :) )
