Is it possible to add multiple custom icons to a map? So different locations on the same map have different icons that I have uploaded?

Hi Helga, I’m testing the google maps widget and have added several stock icons but when it comes to assign an icon to a location i can see ‘none’ but all other icons underneath are not visible which makes assigning a guessing game… I am using Chrome.

Hi there, @Andy_Lamb 👋

The icons don’t show up because you haven’t set the icon names:

If you add the icon names, they’ll appear in the dropdown. Please check it out and let me know if it helped 🙂
