I hope it makes sense

you have to set it yourself. it defaults to 0.

How do you set it? OverlayView does not take a style, width, or height prop 🤷‍♂️

This worked for me. Make a ref and attach it to OverlayView and then: ref.current?.containerRef.current?.style.setProperty("width", "auto"); Don't know if there's a better way.

EDIT: While this somewhat worked it was a terrible hack. Turns out the real issue was that I put an svg as marker. When wrapping the svg in a div, I have no issues anymore. 🙌

EDIT 2: Also replaced OverlayView with OverlayViewF which correctly calls getPixelPositionOffset on initial render 🥳 see this
