Embedded Map : how to obtain Lat/Lon with only on-click

[kaipee]

Hey, I'm using Embedded Map component and it works great.

I would like to allow the creation of map markers and storing the geolocation.

I really dislike the hidden button group that appears when placing a marker, it really throws off the form layour.
Is it possible to simply obtain the Lat/Lon binding with the on-click action of creating a marker?

I would love to simply be able to:

1. click on the map to place a marker
2. store the Lat/Lon via State
3. display Lat/Lon via text component as soon as map is clicked
4. use State to store Lat/Lon in a form once submitted

Hey @kaipee - there's nothing that currently facilitates this without going through the established process, though you're welcome to submit a feature request.

You could also make an open-source contribution - the Budibase embeded map component uses LeafletJS an open source library for creating maps. Budibase itself is also opensource, and we welcome contributions from our community members.
