Fusion Table Layer with polygons AND markers

Question

Using Google Maps API v3

I have a map with the countries coloured using polygons from a Fusion Table Layer. When a polygon is clicked it opens the default Fusion Table info window which has been configured in the web interface.

Some of the countries can't be seen at certain zoom levels so I'd like these countries to have a polygon AND marker, which when clicked open the default Fusion Table info window. I did add a standard map marker but there is no way to open the Fusion Table info window when clicked.

I've read through the docs and looked at the examples but can't see how this is achieved. Is this possible?

Answer 1

Managed to get this working.

I created a second Fusion Table layer and instead of selecting the KML column I selected the Longitude column with a WHERE clause specifying the smaller countries. This renders a layer with markers on the smaller countries which sits on top of the polygon layer.

The only downside is that both the polygon and marker are both clickable which could open duplicate default Fusion Table info windows. Not a major problem though.
