Hai,

I recently noticed the existance of the Gmap module and I wanted to use it with TrackField to display a route on a google map. I encountered a problem with Gmap and I don't know if it's due to my lack of drupal-knowledge or something else.
Maybe the problem is in TrackField module, maybe in Gmap, ...

When going to admin>site construction>gmap and change the 'line default style' it doens't change anything to my map.
Changing color, thickness, opacity, ... nothing changes.

The line on the map stays blue, thin, and 50% opacity.

It can be important to say that I can change the map (terrain-hybrid-street).

What do I do wrong?

I am searching for a long time where the problem could be but I found nothing.
I used a .gpx file to generate the map.

Who can help me? It is very urgent as the site needs be up and running starting from friday!
Why changing the color is important?
It would be for tracking a boat so a blue line on the sea isn't very good. I prefer a thicker red line...

Thank you very very much!

Actually, I reverted the thread to the actual content-- we don't delete content on drupal.org. If you post about a problem or question that you later answer yourself, it can be helpful to someone else if you follow up with the solution. ;-)

The solution was something else.
Trackfield uses Gmap to plot the track on a google map and the default line has nothing to do with it. To change the line style the trackfield module creates do the following:
Go to the map where trackfield is situated
>trackfield_map.module

search for
/* TODO: these should be attributes of formatter */
$path_colour = '0000bb';
$path_width = 2;
$path_opacity = 50;

Changing these settings will change the track style.
