Is it possible to draw routes with google maps or any other map api? Like when you're looking for direction from point a to point b on google map with Get Directions button.
I'd like to draw a line that follows certain road but without the directions I don't need those. And if I can draw multiple lines between multiple points on the map that would be awesome.
Has anyone had experience with this before?

Reset to default 1You can either use the Directions API or, if you really prefer to ignore the directions Google generates, you can use the maps API drawing functions to draw your own lines on the map.
You can also employ "drawing library" https://developers.google./maps/documentation/javascript/drawing
But,this experimental tool cant specify colors nor line-thick via GUI. My enhanced example is at: http://members.j.home.ne.jp/tcltk-d/ge-navi.html (select "Drawing" view to draw)
