Events (Map)

We support almost all leaflet events. The events are divided into three groups: Leaflet events, marker events, and path events.

Map Events

dblclick	MouseEvent	Is triggered when a double-click in or a double-tap on the map is executed.
mousedown	MouseEvent	Is triggered as long as the mouse button is held down on the map.
mouseup	MouseEvent	Is triggered as soon as the pressed mouse button is released.
mouseover	MouseEvent	Is triggered when the mouse pointer enters the area of the map.
