How to remove a MapType from google map using Google Maps Javascript V3 API?

Question

Here is the snippet I am using to display Google map on my app using their V3 Javascript API.

var myOptions = {
            zoom: 15,
            mapTypeId:          


        

Answer 1

You can remove all the default UI

var mapOptions = {
            zoom: 15,
            mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP,
            disableDefaultUI: true
        };

var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), mapOptions);

And then you can add your own controls

Or you can just add mapTypeControl: false
