Has anyone managed to use ItemizedOverlays in Android Beta 0.9? I can't get it to work, but I'm not sure if I've done something wrong or if this functionality isn't yet available. I've been trying to use the ItemizedOverlay and OverlayItem classes. Their intended purpose is to simulate map markers (as seen in Google Maps Mashups) but I...
I'm trying to get the zoom controls to show up in a mapview, the following code almost works, but the zoom controls appear in the top left of the mapview, not the bottom center like I'm specifiying via setGravity(). Can someone enlighten me as to what I'm missing? zoomView = (LinearLayout) mapView.getZoomControls(); zoomView.setLayout...
I have a problem with custom ItemizedOverlay on the MapView in Android. What I've done: Very simple offspring of ItemizedOverlay class that only wraps my own type of items and uses ItemizedOverlay for all the hard work. What works: Nearly everything - items are drawn properly, I can tap them etc. The problem: If I drag the map in the ...
Is there a way to always show the zoom controls on a MapView? I have added the zoom controls using map=(MapView)findViewById(R.id.map); map.setBuiltInZoomControls(true); but the zoom controls fade in and out. I want them to always be visible. ...
Greetings! I'm attempting to use MKMapView without any Apple code samples, though there are a few others out there of varying clarity. (I know, "Read the friendly manual." I've done that but it's not 100% clear, so please bear with me on this one.) Here's the situation. I have a MKMapView object, wherein I have added a set of about ten ...
I have attached a mapview to my layout and have a it showing a compass and my current location, the problem I have is that there is no street map shown in the view, so basically I just see the compass and my current location over a blank grid. ...
Hi, I have upgraded my iphone sdk from 2.2.1 to 3.0. I downloaded a sample code for MapKit and was able to run it successfully. But when I tried to write my own program I faced linker errors. The error is not thrown when I import MapKit/MapKit.h or when I declare a variable as MKMapView *mapView; I get the error when I say [[MKMapView ...
Right. So I have an app widget. It has 4 buttons, one one of the buttons I want it to show me the current location of the user on the map. So - I make a new activity as below: package com.android.driverwidget; import java.util.List; import android.os.Bundle; import com.google.android.maps.MapActivity; import com.google.android.map...
A custom AnnotationView is updated with new coordinates. But the problem is that it visually updates only after some manipulations with MKMapView, e.g. zooming or moving. What should I do to manually update visual position on a map? PS. I've tried to change region to current map's region. But it does change zoom. It's strange. [mapView...
I have added a subclass of UIView as a subview to an MKMapView when a button is pressed. The UIView has its background colour set to be clear. This UIView is not getting messaged with any of the touchesBegan, etc. messages. The MKMapView seems to be receiving all the messages still as zooming still occurs on a double click, etc. How ...
I want to you iPhone LocationManager and display the position using a custom map, different from the one used by MapView. Is there any way to customize the MapView or should I rebuild my own MapView from scratch ? Do you think MapView will be open to achieve this kind of customization in a future release of the SDK ? Do you have any re...
With MapKit in the iPhone 3.0 SDK, you create objects that conform to the MKAnnotation protocol. Loading these onto the MKMapView is very easy. However, when a user scrolls the MKMapView, it's time to load new annotations. A likely place to request the new objects would be in mapView:regionDidChangeAnimated: which is called when the map'...
Does anyone know, or have code that shows, how to create a custom MKAnnotationView Callout? I mean the actual text bubble and not the pin. Thanks in advance. ...
Hi, I have a mkannotation located on a mapview which has a mkannotationview as well as a calloutview which when clicked goes to a child uiviewcontroller. I am updating some properties from the callout's uiviewcontroller, but after I'm finished I want to move the annotation's position on the map and change the annotation title and subti...
I'm trying to create an application that uses the iPhone MapView (under Google Code). I can't figure out how to integrate this thing into my application without handwriting the entire UI, ie not using the IB at all. How can I use the Interface builder to create all of my menus and such but add the MapView in? Do I need to edit the MapVi...
I'm currently working with the mapkit and am stuck. I have a custom annotation view I am using, and I want to use the image property to display the point on the map with my own icon. I have this working fine. But what I would also like to do is to override the default callout view (the bubble that shows up with the title/subtitle when t...
It seems that DrivingDirections have been removed since Android API 1.0 What's the way now to display a map with two points (one of them might be the current location, but can also be any other location) and the direction from one to another in Android 1.6? ...
Hi guys I'm attempting to draw polygons on a mapView. What I did was to add a transparent view on the main view, that matches the bounds of the mapView, and I draw over it. When I move the table it's ok, but when I zoom in and out the polygones 'bounce' on the Y axis (latitude) but the x axis is ok. What do you think? BTW I tried to a...
In my app I am drawing bus routes on top of a MapView. The routes have anywhere between a dozen and a few hundred GPS coordinates that describe the route that the bus takes. The problem I'm having is that once I draw out all these lines panning/zooming the MapView is incredibly slow (even clicking the 'Back' button takes a minute to h...
Hi. How do I long click on a mapview so that a place marker appears at that point on the map? I tried a couple ways without success: 1) Using setOnLongClickListener on the MapvView which never detected the longclicks. 2) My other idea was to extend MapView to override dispatchTouchEvent .. Create a GestureDetector to respond to lon...
