Mapbox gl repeat marker

Question

I try to repeat a marker at the same coordinates when I am moving the map to infinity, in the same way that layers.

example : https://www.mapbox.com/mapbox-gl-js/example/geojson-polygon/

Has anyone found how to do that please?

If it's not possible, conversely is it possible to not repeat layers when you moving the map ?

Thank you

I don't understand what you mean - "moving the map to infinity"? "Repeat a marker at the same coordinates"? Can you try explaining a different way? — Steve Bennett
Oh, this makes sense to me now. The basemap when repeats when you scroll horizontally around the world, but markers don't - they exist at exactly one lat/long. — Steve Bennett

The Link example you provided is not using Markers to render the shaded area. It is using a feature, in this case a polygon, included in a layer (a layer can have many features).

In MapBox the rendered map is made up of any number of layers (including the tile data) which is rendered whenever you scroll or drag to a particular area of the map. For example as you keep dragging to the right in the map it will just keep rendering in the relevant layers and tiles.

The Marker functionality has a different purpose which is as a one off selected point which is useful for a user click or hover interaction.
