Also, I found this other thread: http://getsatisfaction.com/modestmaps... talking about UIComponent.
That conversation was 1 year ago. Anybody could tell me if finally somebody found a solution? Anybody is working on a solution?

I'm newbie to Flex/Flash but can try to make that work or find a possible solution.

How use Flex Button as a marker???

Hi all,
I found a link with a possible solution to my question (http://getsatisfaction.com/modestmaps...) but I want to know why.
I'm relatively newbie to Flex/Flash and what I don't understand is:

If I can use any Sprite as a Marker, why I can't use a Flex Button (which inherits from Sprite) as a Marker?

Thanks in advance.

I'm interested too. I hope to have time in the next days to start working on that :)

Wow, thanks a lot Random.
Yesterday, I was looking at the samples folder and learning some nice things of MM :) like controls and buttons.
* Is there any example using Overlays? (excuse me if it is in the samples folder I don't explore it completely).

I'll continue and making more questions I hope they will be useful for more newbie people like me.

Thanks.

Hi RandomEtc and thanks for your quickly reply.
What I have in mind is to use MMaps instead GMaps. I need markers, InfoWindow, polygons, overlays, images, etc.
I'm looking at MM source code to know what can I do and what can't I do with MM so probably in a days I put more posts asking for some things, like:
* how to add overlays like GreatCircle class? or
* what is the reason to use MarkerClip to handle markers instead of add them directly to map with addChild?
Thanks in advice.

ModestMaps project activity ???

How active is currently the project?
It seems not much activity on this page neither in the source code, but I'm very interested for an OS project and maybe add some contributions.
Thanks in advance.
