I've issue on this, do you any way so I could change it with customSize?
I use this as a workaround, may be useful for you. It creates a redimensioned version of the asset image on the fly.
import 'dart:typed_data'; import 'dart:ui' as ui; import 'package:flutter/services.dart'; import 'package:google_maps_flutter/google_maps_flutter.dart'; Future<Uint8List> getBytesFromAsset(String path, int width) async { ByteData data = await rootBundle.load(path); ui.Codec codec = await ui.instantiateImageCodec(data.buffer.asUint8List(), targetWidth: width); ui.FrameInfo fi = await codec.getNextFrame(); return (await fi.image.toByteData(format: ui.ImageByteFormat.png)).buffer.asUint8List(); } Future<BitmapDescriptor> getBitmapDescriptorFromAssetBytes(String path, int width) async { final Uint8List imageData = await getBytesFromAsset(path, width); return BitmapDescriptor.fromBytes(imageData); }
Usage:
final icon = await getBitmapDescriptorFromAssetBytes("asset/image.png", 35);

google_maps_flutterand alsodevicePixelRatioandSizeoptions are ignoredIt's been over a year now and Size and devicePixelRatio are still ignored.
It's been over a year now and Size and devicePixelRatio are still ignored. @giancarlopro I wish your workaround worked but the icon is still the same size no matter if I put 100 or 1 for the width.
it should work if you're using
.pngformat. have you tested with other images?Reacted by DarkMikey and Lays Dragonit should work if you're using
.pngformat. have you tested with other images?Sorry, I actually just did a poor job implementing the code. It works great!

Currently we ignore the marker size in the
ImageConfigurationand only use it to resolve the asset imagedpi. This is to scale the image after picking the right resolution per thesizeparameter passed.
