## Implemented Interfaces

ChamplainLabel implements ClutterContainer, ClutterScriptable, ClutterAnimatable, AtkImplementorIface and ChamplainLocation.

## Description

Markers reprensent points of interest on a map. Markers need to be placed on a layer (a ChamplainMarkerLayer). Layers have to be added to a ChamplainView for the markers to show on the map.

A marker is nothing more than a regular ClutterActor. You can draw on it what ever you want. Set the markers position on the map using champlain_location_set_location.

Champlain has a default type of markers with text. To create one, use champlain_label_new_with_text.
