I\'m currently creating and returning a custom view with the google maps ios SDK by setting delegate to self and using the following code.
#pragma mark - GMS
Swift 3.0 Solution
//empty the default infowindow
func mapView(_ mapView: GMSMapView, markerInfoWindow marker: GMSMarker) -> UIView? {
return UIView()
}
// reset custom infowindow whenever marker is tapped
func mapView(_ mapView: GMSMapView, didTap marker: GMSMarker) -> Bool {
customInfoView.removeFromSuperview()
// customInfoView.button.addTarget(self, action: #selector(buttonTapped(_:)), for: .touchUpInside)
self.view.addSubview(customInfoView)
// Remember to return false
// so marker event is still handled by delegate
return false
}
// let the custom infowindow follows the camera
func mapView(_ mapView: GMSMapView, didChange position: GMSCameraPosition) {
if (locationMarker != nil){
let location = locationMarker.position
customInfoView.center = mapView.projection.point(for: location)
}
}
// take care of the close event
func mapView(_ mapView: GMSMapView, didTapAt coordinate: CLLocationCoordinate2D) {
customInfoView.removeFromSuperview()
}
and make outlet of this view(customInfoWindow) in same controller which has mapView.
I got the idea from this link thanks to this developer Custom and interactive googlemaps(IOS SDK) infowindow
