GoogleMaps refresh

Is there a posibility to refresh the GoogleMaps option in Dashticz (automatic or by hand). I tried the refresh option, I use in other special blocks such as "alarmmeldingen" and "traffic info", but that doesn't work.

The GoogleMaps block is one of the blocks I never had a look at nor tested.
I'll change it into a regular Dashticz component, including refresh option.

Can you test Dashticz 3.10.7?
(update with git pull)
Several things changed. Please read the documentation:
https://dashticz.readthedocs.io/en/beta ... emaps.html
You may have to change your styling as well.

I've installed the new version and add the new block to my config.js.
It looks good, There is no traffic at this time, so it is difficult now to check if the refresh works.
If I click on the manual refresh, nothings happens, but again there is now traffic now so diffcult to check.
I will test it tomorrow morning and let you know.
Suggestion, is it possible to add a last update field?
Question, is also the trafficinfo.js changed?
Thanks for your great work.

No change in trafficinfo.js
I will add the lastupdate info.
(did that already for a route)

All works very well. Also the routemap is a nice to have and works great.
I have one comment. The manual refresh button is located at the upper right corner, but since google places his full screen icon also in this corner I think its better to place the icon on te left lower corner.

I noticed the routemap doesn't take the actual traffic information into account. On the Google website I've found some information how to fix that. I'll try to implement that this weekend.
I'll move the refresh button to the lower left, and add the lastupdate information.

Route information should now also take actual traffic conditions into account.

Unfortunately, I am not able to test it in 2 weeks. I will let you know later.
Thank you.

Hi Lokonli,
I've tested the latest version. Refresh icon is now on the left lower corner. The routemap looks nice and it takes into account the actual traffic info (checked with maps on my mobile phone). On the routemap I see the lastupdate near to the refresh button, but on the trafficmap the lastupdate is empty. I only see a refresh buton.
