Hi,

I am using node-red-contrib-web-worldmap to display GPS locations. I am trying to find a way to let the user selecting a point or severals lon & lat directly by clicking on the map and then get the user's selected values back in a msg.

So far, I din't find any ways to achieve it and I am wondering if it is possible ?

Any ideas will be very welcome.

Best  
Yves

If you use the worldmap in node ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex026/uploads/nodered/original/2X/1/1560350fd3383890f0a3e4b9aea42ce40fda473a.png)  
you should get a click event when you click a marker.
