Use custom map marker icons

Out-of-the-box, Toolset provides you with an array of map marker icons. You can also easily add your own custom ones.

Go to the Toolset → Settings page and click the Maps tab. There, look for the Map markers section and click the Add a new marker button.

We recommend using the following format:

  • Use transparent PNG or SVG format so the map is visible underneath the marker icon.
  • Use icons with dimensions of 32 x 32 pixels. This is the dimension we automatically resize the SVG markers to. We don’t scale other image format so if you use them, upload them in the exact size as you want them to appear on the map.
