I am uploading kmls into Google Map (not Google Earth).

My KMLs contain polygons (county borders).

There is a different "styleurl" for each county. Right now I can control the content of the bubble via <name> and <description> from within the polygon's <Placemark> tags. Instead I would like to control the bubble content from within the Style definition, using

<BalloonStyle>
<text>My custom text</text>
</BalloonStyle>

Q1 Does Google map support these functions (my testing so far suggests "no")

Q2 Where could I have looked up this answer on my own before posting here?

Thanks!

  • @GeoCodeZip Yes I saw that documented but it appears to not work at all. I made a test map, exported kml and tweaked the Google-generated text by adding "Test" <![CDATA[Test

    $[name]

    ]]>         in the style definition. No change in the bubble.. Then I tweaked the name in the placemark tags and that did appear int he bubble.     – Steve E May 21 '20 at 15:38

Per the documentation <BaloonStyle> is partially supported by the API:

<BalloonStyle> partially only <text> is supported
