I want to drag a 'marker' to a (world)map, but since the user should be able to place multiple markers i need to leave the original in place.

 

The idea is :

 

- user clicks(mousedown) on marker icon

- create a clone an attach it to the cursor 

- on mouseup place the marker on the map.

- user places second marker, etc etc.

Forums SuperStart Rodrigo has already built exactly what you need:

I believe the general idea is that you will always have one transparent draggable marker sitting over your static visible marker.

When you start dragging the static marker, the draggable one gets its opacity increased.

Also when you start dragging a new transparent draggable gets created and sits on top of the static visible marker.

 

This is a very clever approach.
