customize google maps with popups - java

Is there an platform that you know of that I can use google maps and make it completely customized to look like this:
michigan_map_idea
Also it is important that we would be able to add a hover popup as well as a selection popup from the location dots. I just want to know whether it is possible to do this. The end goal is to upload the map to wordpress. We are open to coding with javascript, html and css.

This might help in regards to styling your map the way you want: https://mapstyle.withgoogle.com/
For the yellow dot as marker, I would make custom markers, more info here: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/custom-markers
For hover events you can follow the marker click event guide by google, but instead of click - you guessed it - use hover (if this does not work mouseenter and mouseleave):

(Translation) I want to keep overrides without dev tools

I want to change the title bar color of the Google Create shortcut window.
The left is the basic state, and the right is the appearance of adding functions through elements.
From How to change Chrome App Caption Bar color in Windows 10
I changed the title color by referring to the link above. Answer at the bottom.
I want to keep this state from when I turn it on, but it doesn't work without dev tools.
I wanted to keep this state, so I looked for a way, but this was the only hopeful comment.
How can I use 'Custom JavaScript for Websites 2' to keep title bar color without dev tools?
You should use an extension like this or this and inject CSS like:
body {
background-color: #131722;
}
If you want to change the top bar in the image you posted, that's Google Chrome. Try Dark Mode.
The problem has been resolved.
You can use this extension.

After editing the element, you can save it.
But the downside is that the site is too slow. The evaluation is also complex. I think it will be a good tool for some. For me, this tool is too inconvenient. I'm looking for a better way.

Jquery Visitor notify box

I am looking to create a Slide up box, how I would want this to work is when someone visits the site a small box would popup in the right corner of the site that has text in it which could say hey register to the site or just informer the visitor of some information that is going on.
I would want this to be free to customize like css wise so this box can fit the site look, if anyone know about any guides or have the code it would be really helpful.
I tried googling it but could not find what I was really looking for, since most of them only pop-up when you click a button, I want this to slide up automatically and have a x button which allows the person to make the box disappear, and I would want one that just lets it show/hide.
Try taking a look at this:

It may be what you're looking for!
You can customize it to your liking too :)

Formatting JEditorPane's cursor, tooltips, links

Right now, I'm using Java Swing to create a JEditorPane primarily for its ability to have hyperlinks. I've successfully been able to display links and have them execute behavior upon a click, but I'm running into a few problems with formatting.
How can I set the cursor so that it normally is an arrow, but changes to a text cursor when hovering over text? (In essence, the behavior a cursor has within a web browser). I tried
EditorPane.setCursor(new Cursor(Cursor.TEXT_CURSOR))
but that made it a text cursor everywhere, even when not hovering over text. Right now, hovering over a link shows a pointer hand; I'd like to maintain that functionality as well.
What is the best way to show tooltips or mouseover text when hovering over a link? I tried modifying the title attribute of the link but nothing showed up.
I was trying to implement links to skip down to a subsection of the page, much like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xkcd#History would take you directly to the History subsection of Wikipedia's xkcd page. How can I do this?
An answer to any of these would be great (and multiple would be awesome xP). Thanks a lot for your help!
As you said one can simply give answers to a single point as well, let me try one by one, here is the answer for your last Point 3
Just provide an id to your tag like this
<h1><a id = "top"></a>First Line</h1>
Now somewhere in the bottom of your page write this :
<p>Return to TOP</p>
Clicking this link, you will reach the above area of the PAGE.
Points 1 & 2 may be addressed using the approach mentioned here. In particular, the view/model conversion methods will let you condition setCursor() and getToolTipText(), respectively.
You can get source from here http://java-sl.com/JEditorPaneStructureTool.html
It shows how to obtain text view bounds. First you get caret position for current mouse poiunter using viewToModel() method. Then go down the Views tree achieving leaf view and calcualte it's bounds. See this http://java-sl.com/tip_view_rectangle.html
If your mouse pointer in the view's rectangle then your mouse over text.
You can check whether the text in caret position is link and show your tooltip.
Use this http://java-sl.com/tip_links_in_editable.html to see how to detect whether mouse is over link.

Adding a Basic Java Program into Website

Firstly I am no longer a student and doing this for other purposes, so don't hold back on the help ;)
I want to incorporate a simple program into my webpage. I want 4 buttons labelled right arm, left arm, activate voice and walk forward. There will be a box above these buttons showing an image of a robot and as the buttons are pressed by the user I want a different image to be loaded in the box.
So if the right arm button is pressed the image with the robot raising its right arm will need to be displayed.
So basically all I want the buttons to do is to load the image that belongs to each one. I am assuming java is the best choice? I have the open source Java package, would I need any other software when it comes to embedding it into a webpage? My webpage is done on dreamweaver and I am pretty good with html. Would appreciate it if someone could point me to the right direction.....Thanks
Don't use Java for this. Use JavaScript. Something like this:
HTML:
<img src="one.jpg" id="firstImage" />
<img src="two.jpg" id="secondImage" />
​<button id="doSomething">Do Something</button>
<button id="doSomethingElse">​Do Something Else</button>​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
CSS:
​img {
display: none;
}​
JavaScript:
var hideImages = function() {
$('#firstImage').hide();
$('#secondImage').hide();
};
$('#doSomething').click(function() {
hideImages();
$('#firstImage').show();
});
$('#doSomething').click(function() {
hideImages();
$('#secondImage').show();
});​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
What this essentially does is initially display no images, just buttons. Then as each button is clicked, the corresponding image is displayed. (And all other images are first hidden, since previous button clicks would have displayed previous images.)
This is an overly simple proof of concept, of course. At the very least you'll want to use better variable names :) This just demonstrates the idea of how you'd show/hide images in JavaScript in response to button clicks. (This also assumes the use of jQuery, which is a safe assumption these days. The easiest way to use that is to refer to a CDN link in your page, using a standard HTML script tag.) You can see this code in action here (though the images are broken, of course.)
If there are a lot of buttons and a lot of images, you may be able to re-factor the code to be less repetitive as well. Maybe store the images in an array and have a single button click handler which can associate the sending button with the correct array element, etc. That's up to you.
There are many technologies that could help you: javascript is one of them and it would be much simpler than using Java for such simple thing. You can use Java applet if you really want to use Java for that project.

Working in java image

I will explain my question clearly.
I need to zoom in/zoom out the world map.
When I click on the particular country in map, control should redirected to new page with respective the country.
I dont have any idea about this in java. Please explain the steps to acheive the above task.
As the question is quite general, here is a general answer: Zooming often means, that you want to display a certain percentage of somethin, and not the whole, where your size of the displayed will not change.
But in your case it seems more like a "find a mouse click in a polygon" thing. So you have to add a selection/click listener to whatever widgets you use (Swt? swing? ....?) where you change what your program renders.
It sounds like you may be trying to reinvent the wheel. Google etc have already solved this problem rather well. It might be better to incorporate an existing solution into your application. Have a look at GoogleEarth inside Java Swing.
