Description
Description
Using GoogleMapsOverlay from Deck.gl for Google Map JS API in overlaid mode should enable objects being picked or dragged. However this does not work.
Flavors
- Script tag
- React
- Python/Jupyter notebook
- MapboxOverlay
- GoogleMapsOverlay
- CartoLayer
- ArcGIS
Expected Behavior
After setting pickable=true, dragging the object should fire the respective events.
Steps to Reproduce
https://stackblitz.com/edit/vitejs-vite-rxes87?file=main.js
You can see that highlighting works, but onDrag / onDragStart / onDragEnd does not.
Environment
- Framework version: 9.0.17

Research direction
Reproduce the behavior using the linked StackBlitz example, starting with main.js and the GoogleMapsOverlay setup. Trace how pickable objects receive hover and click input versus drag input; done means onDragStart, onDrag, and onDragEnd fire when a pickable object is dragged in Google Maps overlaid mode.
