Cloud-Based Map Styling map customization (beta)

You can now create custom styles, and use tokens to assign them to maps in your apps and websites. For more information, see the see the iOS Maps Customization Overview .

Polyline customization: stamped polylines

You can set the appearance of a polyline to a repeating bitmap texture by using GMSTextureStyle . The images cover the line completely, but are cut off around end points and vertices.

To create a stamped polyline, create a GMSStampStyle of GMSTextureStyle . Then set this property on the shape's options object by using stampStyle , as shown here:
