Google Maps zoom and map type control are freakishly big

Thanks to a recent update of Google Maps, the controls for zoom and map type now look enormous.

Ability to draw circles on maps

6

The drawing layer can currently draw lines and polygons, but it would be useful to also draw circles (cf [this tweet](https://twitter.com/AlanZucconi/status/930480664234913792)). The GoogleMaps JavaScript API supports circles (see [docs](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/3.exp/reference#Circle)). To...

At the moment, to modify the style of every GeoJSON feature, you have to iterate over all of them: ```py for feature in layer.features: feature.stroke_weight = 4.0 ``` It'd be...

It would be good to be able to catch zoom events to resize specific features -- see, for instance issue #228 .

At the moment, the drawing layer only works in the notebook. We should see if it's possible to move more of the interaction client-side, so that the map still works...

The following should work: ```py import gmaps import gmaps.datasets gmaps.configure(api_key="AI...") df = gmaps.datasets.load_dataset_as_df('starbucks_kfc_uk').sample(200) fig = gmaps.figure() marker_layer = gmaps.marker_layer( df[['latitude', 'longitude']], info_box_content=df['chain_name'] ) fig.add_layer(marker_layer) fig ``` At the moment, we...

Additional GeoJSON files

Gmaps bundles useful GeoJSON geometries to save users the work of having to find them from the Internet. There are currently a [handful](https://github.com/pbugnion/gmaps/blob/master/gmaps/geojson_geometries/geojson_geometries.py) of geometries included. Adding new geometries is...

[This example](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/adding-a-legend) describes how to add a legend to a map. Can we add this to the marker layer? It would be good to do a proof-of-concept first.

At the moment, exporting maps that contain a directions layer to PNG is not supported (because html2canvas 0.4.1 doesn't support it). See [this question](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37457945/html2canvas-screenshot-of-a-div-element-containing-google-drive-directions-map) on StackOverflow for reference.
