This reference reflects Leaflet . Check this list if you are using a different version of Leaflet.
The central class of the API — it is used to create a map on a page and manipulate it.
// initialize the map on the "map" div with a given center and zoom
var map = L.map('map', {
center: [51.505, -0.09],
zoom: 13
});

and optionally an object literal with Map options . |
Option | Type | Default | Description |
---|---|---|---|
preferCanvas |
Boolean |
false |
Whether Path s should be rendered on a Canvas renderer.
By default, all Path s are rendered in a SVG renderer. |
Option | Type | Default | Description |
---|---|---|---|
attributionControl |
Boolean |
true |
Whether a attribution control is added to the map by default. |
zoomControl |
Boolean |
true |
Whether a zoom control is added to the map by default. |
Option | Type | Default | Description |
---|---|---|---|
closePopupOnClick |
Boolean |
true |
Set it to false if you don't want popups to close when user clicks the map. |
boxZoom |
Boolean |
true |
Whether the map can be zoomed to a rectangular area specified by dragging the mouse while pressing the shift key. |
doubleClickZoom |
Boolean|String |
true |
Whether the map can be zoomed in by double clicking on it and
zoomed out by double clicking while holding shift. If passed
'center' , double-click zoom will zoom to the center of the
view regardless of where the mouse was. |
dragging |
Boolean |
true |
Whether the map is draggable with mouse/touch or not. |
zoomSnap |
Number |
1 |
Forces the map's zoom level to always be a multiple of this, particularly
right after a fitBounds() or a pinch-zoom.
By default, the zoom level snaps to the nearest integer; lower values
(e.g. 0.5 or 0.1 ) allow for greater granularity. A value of 0
means the zoom level will not be snapped after fitBounds or a pinch-zoom. |
zoomDelta |
Number |
1 |
Controls how much the map's zoom level will change after a
zoomIn() , zoomOut() , pressing +
or - on the keyboard, or using the zoom controls.

maxBoundsViscosity |
Number |
0.0 |
If maxBounds is set, this option will control how solid the bounds
are when dragging the map around. The default value of 0.0 allows the
user to drag outside the bounds at normal speed, higher values will
slow down map dragging outside bounds, and 1.0 makes the bounds fully
solid, preventing the user from dragging outside the bounds. |

Used to open popups in certain places of the map. Use Map.openPopup to open popups while making sure that only one popup is open at one time (recommended for usability), or use Map.addLayer to open as many as you want.
If you want to just bind a popup to marker click and then open it, it's really easy:
marker.bindPopup(popupContent).openPopup();
Path overlays like polylines also have a bindPopup
method.
A popup can be also standalone:
var popup = L.popup()
.setLatLng(latlng)
.setContent('<p>Hello world!<br />This is a nice popup.</p>')
.openOn(map);
or
var popup = L.popup(latlng, {content: '<p>Hello world!<br />This is a nice popup.</p>')
.openOn(map);

Used to display small texts on top of map layers.
If you want to just bind a tooltip to marker:
marker.bindTooltip("my tooltip text").openTooltip();
Path overlays like polylines also have a bindTooltip
method.
A tooltip can be also standalone:
var tooltip = L.tooltip()
.setLatLng(latlng)
.setContent('Hello world!<br />This is a nice tooltip.')
.addTo(map);
or
var tooltip = L.tooltip(latlng, {content: 'Hello world!<br />This is a nice tooltip.'})
.addTo(map);
Note about tooltip offset. Leaflet takes two options in consideration for computing tooltip offsetting:
offset
Tooltip option: it defaults to [0, 0], and it's specific to one tooltip.
Add a positive x offset to move the tooltip to the right, and a positive y offset to
move it to the bottom. Negatives will move to the left and top.tooltipAnchor
Icon option: this will only be considered for Marker. You
should adapt this value if you use a custom icon.Factory | Description |

Used to load and display tile layers on the map. Note that most tile servers require attribution, which you can set under Layer
. Extends GridLayer
.
L.tileLayer('https://tile.openstreetmap.org/{z}/{x}/{y}.png?{foo}', {foo: 'bar', attribution: '© <a href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright">OpenStreetMap</a> contributors'}).addTo(map);
A string of the following form:
'https://{s}.somedomain.com/blabla/{z}/{x}/{y}{r}.png'
{s}
means one of the available subdomains (used sequentially to help with browser parallel requests per domain limitation; subdomain values are specified in options; a
, b
or c
by default, can be omitted), {z}
— zoom level, {x}
and {y}
— tile coordinates. {r}
can be used to add "@2x" to the URL to load retina tiles.
You can use custom keys in the template, which will be evaluated from TileLayer options, like this:
L.tileLayer('https://{s}.somedomain.com/{foo}/{z}/{x}/{y}.png', {foo: 'bar'});
Factory | Description |
---|---|
L.tilelayer( |
Instantiates a tile layer object given a URL template and optionally an options object. |
Option | Type | Default | Description |
---|---|---|---|
minZoom |
Number |
0 |
The minimum zoom level down to which this layer will be displayed (inclusive). |
maxZoom |
Number |
18 |
The maximum zoom level up to which this layer will be displayed (inclusive). |
subdomains |

Boolean |
false |
If set to true, the zoom number used in tile URLs will be reversed (maxZoom - zoom instead of zoom ) |
detectRetina |
Boolean |
false |
If true and user is on a retina display, it will request four tiles of half the specified size and a bigger zoom level in place of one to utilize the high resolution. |
crossOrigin |
Boolean|String |
false |
Whether the crossOrigin attribute will be added to the tiles. If a String is provided, all tiles will have their crossOrigin attribute set to the String provided. This is needed if you want to access tile pixel data. Refer to CORS Settings for valid String values. |
referrerPolicy |
Boolean|String |
false |
Whether the referrerPolicy attribute will be added to the tiles. If a String is provided, all tiles will have their referrerPolicy attribute set to the String provided. This may be needed if your map's rendering context has a strict default but your tile provider expects a valid referrer (e.g. to validate an API token). Refer to HTMLImageElement.referrerPolicy for valid String values. |

A class for drawing polygon overlays on a map. Extends Polyline
.
Note that points you pass when creating a polygon shouldn't have an additional last point equal to the first one — it's better to filter out such points.
// create a red polygon from an array of LatLng points
var latlngs = [[37, -109.05],[41, -109.03],[41, -102.05],[37, -102.04]];
var polygon = L.polygon(latlngs, {color: 'red'}).addTo(map);
// zoom the map to the polygon
map.fitBounds(polygon.getBounds());
You can also pass an array of arrays of latlngs, with the first array representing the outer shape and the other arrays representing holes in the outer shape:
var latlngs = [
[[37, -109.05],[41, -109.03],[41, -102.05],[37, -102.04]], // outer ring
[[37.29, -108.58],[40.71, -108.58],[40.71, -102.50],[37.29, -102.50]] // hole
];
Additionally, you can pass a multi-dimensional array to represent a MultiPolygon shape.
var latlngs = [
[ // first polygon
[[37, -109.05],[41, -109.03],[41, -102.05],[37, -102.04]], // outer ring
[[37.29, -108.58],[40.71, -108.58],[40.71, -102.50],[37.29, -102.50]] // hole

Allows vector layers to be displayed with SVG.
Inherits Renderer
.
Due to technical limitations, SVG is not available in all web browsers, notably Android 2.x and 3.x.
Although SVG is not available on IE7 and IE8, these browsers support VML (a now deprecated technology), and the SVG renderer will fall back to VML in this case.
VML was deprecated in 2012, which means VML functionality exists only for backwards compatibility with old versions of Internet Explorer.
Use SVG by default for all paths in the map:
var map = L.map('map', {
renderer: L.svg()
});
Use a SVG renderer with extra padding for specific vector geometries:
var map = L.map('map');
var myRenderer = L.svg({ padding: 0.5 });
var line = L.polyline( coordinates, { renderer: myRenderer } );
var circle = L.circle( center, { renderer: myRenderer } );

Extended LayerGroup
that makes it easier to do the same thing to all its member layers:
bindPopup
binds a popup to all of the layers at once (likewise with bindTooltip
)FeatureGroup
, so if the group has an event
handler, it will handle events from any of the layers. This includes mouse events
and custom events.layeradd
and layerremove
eventsL.featureGroup([marker1, marker2, polyline])
.bindPopup('Hello world!')
.on('click', function() { alert('Clicked on a member of the group!'); })

asFeature( |
Object |
Normalize GeoJSON geometries/features into GeoJSON features. |
Generic class for handling a tiled grid of HTML elements. This is the base class for all tile layers and replaces TileLayer.Canvas
.
GridLayer can be extended to create a tiled grid of HTML elements like <canvas>
, <img>
or <div>
. GridLayer will handle creating and animating these DOM elements for you.
To create a custom layer, extend GridLayer and implement the createTile()
method, which will be passed a Point
object with the x
, y
, and z
(zoom level) coordinates to draw your tile.
var CanvasLayer = L.GridLayer.extend({
createTile: function(coords){
// create a <canvas> element for drawing
var tile = L.DomUtil.create('canvas', 'leaflet-tile');
// setup tile width and height according to the options
var size = this.getTileSize();
tile.width = size.x;
tile.height = size.y;
// get a canvas context and draw something on it using coords.x, coords.y and coords.z
var ctx = tile.getContext('2d');
// return the tile so it can be rendered on screen
return tile;
}
});
Tile creation can also be asynchronous, this is useful when using a third-party drawing library. Once the tile is finished drawing it can be passed to the done()
callback.
var CanvasLayer = L.GridLayer.extend({
createTile: function(coords, done){
var error;
// create a <canvas> element for drawing
var tile = L.DomUtil.create('canvas', 'leaflet-tile');
// setup tile width and height according to the options
var size = this.getTileSize();
tile.width = size.x;
tile.height = size.y;
// draw something asynchronously and pass the tile to the done() callback
setTimeout(function() {
done(error, tile);
}, 1000);
return tile;
}
});
Factory | Description |
---|---|
L.gridLayer( |
Creates a new instance of GridLayer with the supplied options. |
Option | Type | Default | Description |
---|---|---|---|

Number|Point |
256 |
Width and height of tiles in the grid. Use a number if width and height are equal, or L.point(width, height) otherwise. |
opacity |
Number |
1.0 |
Opacity of the tiles. Can be used in the createTile() function. |
updateWhenIdle |
Boolean |
(depends) |
Load new tiles only when panning ends.
true by default on mobile browsers, in order to avoid too many requests and keep smooth navigation.
false otherwise in order to display new tiles during panning, since it is easy to pan outside the
keepBuffer option in desktop browsers. |
updateWhenZooming |
Boolean |
true |
By default, a smooth zoom animation (during a touch zoom or a flyTo() ) will update grid layers every integer zoom level. Setting this option to false will update the grid layer only when the smooth animation ends. |
updateInterval |
Number |
200 |
Tiles will not update more than once every updateInterval milliseconds when panning. |
zIndex |
Number |
1 |
The explicit zIndex of the tile layer. |

the tiles on all zoom levels higher than maxNativeZoom will be loaded
from maxNativeZoom level and auto-scaled. |
minNativeZoom |
Number |
undefined |
Minimum zoom number the tile source has available. If it is specified,
the tiles on all zoom levels lower than minNativeZoom will be loaded
from minNativeZoom level and auto-scaled. |
noWrap |
Boolean |
false |
Whether the layer is wrapped around the antimeridian. If true , the
GridLayer will only be displayed once at low zoom levels. Has no
effect when the map CRS doesn't wrap around. Can be used
in combination with bounds to prevent requesting
tiles outside the CRS limits. |
pane |
String |
'tilePane' |
Map pane where the grid layer will be added. |
className |
String |
'' |
A custom class name to assign to the tile layer. Empty by default. |

Represents a geographical point with a certain latitude and longitude.
var latlng = L.latLng(50.5, 30.5);
All Leaflet methods that accept LatLng objects also accept them in a simple Array form and simple object form (unless noted otherwise), so these lines are equivalent:
map.panTo([50, 30]);
map.panTo({lon: 30, lat: 50});
map.panTo({lat: 50, lng: 30});
map.panTo(L.latLng(50, 30));
Note that LatLng
does not inherit from Leaflet's Class
object,
which means new classes can't inherit from it, and new methods
can't be added to it with the include
function.

Represents a rectangular geographical area on a map.
var corner1 = L.latLng(40.712, -74.227),
corner2 = L.latLng(40.774, -74.125),
bounds = L.latLngBounds(corner1, corner2);
All Leaflet methods that accept LatLngBounds objects also accept them in a simple Array form (unless noted otherwise), so the bounds example above can be passed like this:
map.fitBounds([
[40.712, -74.227],
[40.774, -74.125]
]);
Caution: if the area crosses the antimeridian (often confused with the International Date Line), you must specify corners outside the [-180, 180] degrees longitude range.
Note that LatLngBounds
does not inherit from Leaflet's Class
object,
which means new classes can't inherit from it, and new methods
can't be added to it with the include
function.

Used for a huge performance boost when processing/displaying Leaflet polylines for each zoom level and also reducing visual noise. tolerance affects the amount of simplification (lesser value means higher quality but slower and with more points). Also released as a separated micro-library Simplify.js. |
pointToSegmentDistance( |
Number |
Returns the distance between point p and segment p1 to p2 . |
closestPointOnSegment( |
Number |
Returns the closest point from a point p on a segment p1 to p2 . |
clipSegment( |
Point[]|Boolean |
Clips the segment a to b by rectangular bounds with the Cohen-Sutherland algorithm (modifying the segment points directly!). Used by Leaflet to only show polyline points that are on the screen or near, increasing performance. |
isFlat( |
Boolean |
Returns true if latlngs is a flat array, false is nested. |
polylineCenter( |
LatLng |
Returns the center (centroid) of the passed LatLngs (first ring) from a polyline. |
Various utility functions for polygon geometries.
Function | Returns | Description |
---|---|---|
clipPolygon( |
Point[] |
Clips the polygon geometry defined by the given points by the given bounds (using the Sutherland-Hodgman algorithm).
Used by Leaflet to only show polygon points that are on the screen or near, increasing
performance. Note that polygon points needs different algorithm for clipping
than polyline, so there's a separate method for it. |
polygonCenter( |
LatLng |
Returns the center (centroid) of the passed LatLngs (first ring) from a polygon. |
Utility functions to work with the DOM events, used by Leaflet internally.
Function | Returns | Description |
---|---|---|
on( |
this |
Adds a listener function (fn ) to a particular DOM event type of the
element el . You can optionally specify the context of the listener
(object the this keyword will point to). You can also pass several
space-separated types (e.g. 'click dblclick' ). |
on( |
this |
Adds a set of type/listener pairs, e.g. {click: onClick, mousemove: onMouseMove} |
off( |
this |
Removes a previously added listener function.
Note that if you passed a custom context to on, you must pass the same
context to off in order to remove the listener. |
off( |
this |
Removes a set of type/listener pairs, e.g. {click: onClick, mousemove: onMouseMove} |
off( |
this |
Removes all previously added listeners of given types. |
off( |
this |
Removes all previously added listeners from given HTMLElement |
stopPropagation( |
this |
Stop the given event from propagation to parent elements. Used inside the listener functions:
|
disableScrollPropagation( |
this |
Adds stopPropagation to the element's 'wheel' events (plus browser variants). |
disableClickPropagation( |
this |
Adds stopPropagation to the element's 'click' , 'dblclick' , 'contextmenu' ,
'mousedown' and 'touchstart' events (plus browser variants). |
preventDefault( |
this |
Prevents the default action of the DOM Event ev from happening (such as
following a link in the href of the a element, or doing a POST request
with page reload when a <form> is submitted).
Use it inside listener functions. |
stop( |
this |
Does stopPropagation and preventDefault at the same time. |
getPropagationPath( |
Array |
Compatibility polyfill for Event.composedPath() .
Returns an array containing the HTMLElement s that the given DOM event
should propagate to (if not stopped). |
getMousePosition( |
Point |
Gets normalized mouse position from a DOM event relative to the
container (border excluded) or to the whole page if not specified. |
getWheelDelta( |
Number |
Gets normalized wheel delta from a wheel DOM event, in vertical pixels scrolled (negative if scrolling down). Events from pointing devices without precise scrolling are mapped to a best guess of 60 pixels. |

this |
Alias to L.DomEvent.on |
removeListener(…) |
this |
Alias to L.DomEvent.off |

Sets the position of el to coordinates specified by position ,
using CSS translate or top/left positioning depending on the browser
(used by Leaflet internally to position its layers). |
getPosition( |
Point |
Returns the coordinates of an element previously positioned with setPosition. |
disableTextSelection() |
|

L.Class powers the OOP facilities of Leaflet and is used to create almost all of the Leaflet classes documented here.
In addition to implementing a simple classical inheritance model, it introduces several special properties for convenient code organization — options, includes and statics.
var MyClass = L.Class.extend({
initialize: function (greeter) {
this.greeter = greeter;
// class constructor
},
greet: function (name) {
alert(this.greeter + ', ' + name)
}
});
// create instance of MyClass, passing "Hello" to the constructor
var a = new MyClass("Hello");
// call greet method, alerting "Hello, World"
a.greet("World");
You may have noticed that Leaflet objects are created without using
the new
keyword. This is achieved by complementing each class with a
lowercase factory method:
new L.Map('map'); // becomes:
L.map('map');
The factories are implemented very easily, and you can do this for your own classes:
L.map = function (id, options) {
return new L.Map(id, options);
};
You use L.Class.extend to define new classes, but you can use the same method on any class to inherit from it:
var MyChildClass = MyClass.extend({
// ... new properties and methods
});
This will create a class that inherits all methods and properties of the parent class (through a proper prototype chain), adding or overriding the ones you pass to extend. It will also properly react to instanceof:
var a = new MyChildClass();
a instanceof MyChildClass; // true
a instanceof MyClass; // true
You can call parent methods (including constructor) from corresponding child ones (as you do with super calls in other languages) by accessing parent class prototype and using JavaScript's call or apply:
var MyChildClass = MyClass.extend({
initialize: function () {
MyClass.prototype.initialize.call(this, "Yo");
},
greet: function (name) {
MyClass.prototype.greet.call(this, 'bro ' + name + '!');
}
});
var a = new MyChildClass();
a.greet('Jason'); // alerts "Yo, bro Jason!"
options
is a special property that unlike other objects that you pass
to extend
will be merged with the parent one instead of overriding it
completely, which makes managing configuration of objects and default
values convenient:
var MyClass = L.Class.extend({
options: {
myOption1: 'foo',
myOption2: 'bar'
}
});
var MyChildClass = MyClass.extend({
options: {
myOption1: 'baz',
myOption3: 5
}
});
var a = new MyChildClass();
a.options.myOption1; // 'baz'
a.options.myOption2; // 'bar'
a.options.myOption3; // 5
There's also L.Util.setOptions
, a method for
conveniently merging options passed to constructor with the defaults
defines in the class:
var MyClass = L.Class.extend({
options: {
foo: 'bar',
bla: 5
},
initialize: function (options) {
L.Util.setOptions(this, options);
...
}
});
var a = new MyClass({bla: 10});
a.options; // {foo: 'bar', bla: 10}
Note that the options object allows any keys, not just the options defined by the class and its base classes. This means you can use the options object to store application specific information, as long as you avoid keys that are already used by the class in question.
includes
is a special class property that merges all specified objects into the class (such objects are called mixins).
var MyMixin = {
foo: function () { ... },
bar: 5
};
var MyClass = L.Class.extend({
includes: MyMixin
});
var a = new MyClass();
a.foo();
You can also do such includes in runtime with the include
method:
MyClass.include(MyMixin);
statics
is just a convenience property that injects specified object properties as the static properties of the class, useful for defining constants:
var MyClass = L.Class.extend({
statics: {
FOO: 'bar',
BLA: 5
}
});
MyClass.FOO; // 'bar'
If you're a plugin developer, you often need to add additional initialization code to existing classes (e.g. editing hooks for L.Polyline
). Leaflet comes with a way to do it easily using the addInitHook
method:
MyClass.addInitHook(function () {
// ... do something in constructor additionally
// e.g. add event listeners, set custom properties etc.
});
You can also use the following shortcut when you just need to make one additional method call:
MyClass.addInitHook('methodName', arg1, arg2, …);
Function | Returns | Description |
---|---|---|
extend( |
Function |
Extends the current class given the properties to be included.
Returns a Javascript function that is a class constructor (to be called with new ). |
include( |
this |
Includes a mixin into the current class. |
mergeOptions( |
this |
Merges options into the defaults of the class. |
addInitHook( |
this |
Adds a constructor hook to the class. |
A set of methods shared between event-powered classes (like Map
and Marker
). Generally, events allow you to execute some function when something happens with an object (e.g. the user clicks on the map, causing the map to fire 'click'
event).
map.on('click', function(e) {
alert(e.latlng);
} );
Leaflet deals with event listeners by reference, so if you want to add a listener and then remove it, define it as a function:
function onClick(e) { ... }
map.on('click', onClick);
map.off('click', onClick);

Projection | Description |
---|---|
L.Projection.LonLat |
Equirectangular, or Plate Carree projection — the most simple projection,
mostly used by GIS enthusiasts. Directly maps x as longitude, and y as
latitude. Also suitable for flat worlds, e.g. game maps. Used by the
EPSG:4326 and Simple CRS. |
L.Projection.Mercator |
Elliptical Mercator projection — more complex than Spherical Mercator. Assumes that Earth is an ellipsoid. Used by the EPSG:3395 CRS. |
L.Projection.SphericalMercator |
Spherical Mercator projection — the most common projection for online maps,
used by almost all free and commercial tile providers. Assumes that Earth is
a sphere. Used by the EPSG:3857 CRS. |
Method | Returns | Description |
---|---|---|

wrapLng |
Number[] |
An array of two numbers defining whether the longitude (horizontal) coordinate
axis wraps around a given range and how. Defaults to [-180, 180] in most
geographical CRSs. If undefined , the longitude axis does not wrap around. |
wrapLat |
Number[] |
Like wrapLng , but for the latitude (vertical) axis. |
infinite |
Boolean |
If true, the coordinate space will be unbounded (infinite in both axes) |
CRS | Description |
---|---|
L.CRS.Earth |
Serves as the base for CRS that are global such that they cover the earth.
Can only be used as the base for other CRS and cannot be used directly,
since it does not have a code , projection or transformation . distance() returns
meters. |
L.CRS.EPSG3395 |
Rarely used by some commercial tile providers. Uses Elliptical Mercator projection. |
L.CRS.EPSG3857 |
The most common CRS for online maps, used by almost all free and commercial
tile providers. Uses Spherical Mercator projection. Set in by default in
Map's crs option. |
L.CRS.EPSG4326 |
A common CRS among GIS enthusiasts. Uses simple Equirectangular projection.
Leaflet 1.0.x complies with the TMS coordinate scheme for EPSG:4326,
which is a breaking change from 0.7.x behaviour. If you are using a |
L.CRS.Base |
Object that defines coordinate reference systems for projecting
geographical points into pixel (screen) coordinates and back (and to
coordinates in other units for WMS services). See
spatial reference system.
Leaflet defines the most usual CRSs by default. If you want to use a CRS not defined by default, take a look at the Proj4Leaflet plugin. Note that the CRS instances do not inherit from Leaflet's |
L.CRS.Simple |
A simple CRS that maps longitude and latitude into x and y directly.
May be used for maps of flat surfaces (e.g. game maps). Note that the y
axis should still be inverted (going from bottom to top). distance() returns
simple euclidean distance. |
Base class for vector renderer implementations (SVG
, Canvas
). Handles the
DOM container of the renderer, its bounds, and its zoom animation.
A Renderer
works as an implicit layer group for all Path
s - the renderer
itself can be added or removed to the map. All paths use a renderer, which can
be implicit (the map will decide the type of renderer and use it automatically)
or explicit (using the renderer
option of the path).
Do not use this class directly, use SVG
and Canvas
instead.
Option | Type | Default | Description |
---|---|---|---|
padding |
Number |
0.1 |
How much to extend the clip area around the map view (relative to its size) e.g. 0.1 would be 10% of map view in each direction |
Option | Type | Default | Description |
---|---|---|---|
pane |
String |
'overlayPane' |
By default the layer will be added to the map's overlay pane. Overriding this option will cause the layer to be placed on another pane by default. |
attribution |
String |
null |
String to be shown in the attribution control, e.g. "© OpenStreetMap contributors". It describes the layer data and is often a legal obligation towards copyright holders and tile providers. |

Global switches are created for rare cases and generally make Leaflet to not detect a particular browser feature even if it's there. You need to set the switch as a global variable to true before including Leaflet on the page, like this:
<script>L_NO_TOUCH = true;</script>
<script src="leaflet.js"></script>
Switch | Description |
---|---|
L_NO_TOUCH |
Forces Leaflet to not use touch events even if it detects them. |
L_DISABLE_3D |
Forces Leaflet to not use hardware-accelerated CSS 3D transforms for positioning (which may cause glitches in some rare environments) even if they're supported. |
This method restores the L
global variable to the original value
it had before Leaflet inclusion, and returns the real Leaflet
namespace so you can put it elsewhere, like this:
<script src='libs/l.js'>
<!-- L points to some other library -->
<script src='leaflet.js'>
<!-- you include Leaflet, it replaces the L variable to Leaflet namespace -->
<script>
var Leaflet = L.noConflict();
// now L points to that other library again, and you can use Leaflet.Map etc.
</script>
A constant that represents the Leaflet version in use.
L.version; // contains "1.0.0" (or whatever version is currently in use)
map.getPane
ormap.getPanes
methods. New panes can be created with themap.createPane
method.Every map has the following default panes that differ only in zIndex.
