I am searching for functionality which works like the itemizedOverlay on the mapview, only for Imageview. So that I can add items on specific locations on the image and trigger actions on tap of the item. I am building an application for Android where you get Floorplans and on this Floorplan the rooms should be marked and clickable to get more information.

To describe my problem, everytime my location changes, it redraws the center maker on the map. Only catch is that it doesn't delete the previous one. I can get it to delete the previous one when the location is changed, but I have no idea how to pass the original overlay in-between classes.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a SurfaceView that is being used to draw custom animations and I would like to overlay them onto a live-feed from the phone's camera. Currently, the SurfaceView that contains the animations has a white- background, but if I were to overlay them onto the phone's camera feed, they would have to be transparent. The camera and animation drawing cannot be done on the same SurfaceView. Is it possible to make a SurfaceView transparent? What is the best course to pursue the use of multiple views? My end goal is to essentially overlay the contents of another SurfaceView onto the Camera SurfaceView.

This can I obtain following the tutorial: http://developer.android.com /resources /tutorials/views/hello-mapview. But now I like to put a button on the overlay window. That button should open a detail activity. How can I make this? How is possible to personalize the overlay "info window"?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to write code that draws accuracy circles around a gps location based on a time param. I have no problem setting up the GPS, or of calculating how to draw the circles.What's been killing me is that the Overlays always overwrite one another.So I can never have more than one circle.I've looked at all the examples and tutorials online but they seem to be obsessed with putting in icons or with Drawing from some database or array.If I understood correctly I should be able to do itemizedoverlays and just draw as i go without having to track each readout in an array.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI cannot figure out the origin of the ConcurrentModificationException. In my activity I'm calling
updateMapOverlay(). I'm also calling updateMapOverlay() inside another Thread (a TimerTask) that is invoked on regular intervals. I'm taking the appropriate locks when invoking updateMapOverlay() from both the threads. Is this problem being caused because I'm invoking updateMapOverlay from inside a non-UI thread (i.e., TimerTask).
private void updateMapOverlay() { this.itemizedOverlay.refreshItems(createOverlayItemsList());
List<Overlay> overlays = mapView.getOverlays(); overlays.clear();
overlays.add(cotItemizedOverlay); this.mapview.invalidate(); }

I'm basically using the same method of loading bitmaps in OpenGL that the SpriteMethodTest example uses and have been unable to get rid of an annoying outline that appears around all of my images.
For example, If I were to load an image of a white circle on a white background, I would expect to see nothing. Instead, I would see my circle because its edge would be gray. In SpriteMethodTest, I replaced the background image with white and was able to see that the edges of the android images flying around also don't seem to be rendered correctly.
Does anyone know how to load images in OpenGL without having a thin outline appear around the images?
I'm working to convert some background images to nine patch so they scale better on different phones.
The problem is that if I have the following resource structure: drawable-hdpi/background.png drawable-hdpi/button.png drawable-mdpi/background.png drawable-mdpi/button.png drawable-ldpi/background.png drawable-ldpi/button.png and then I drop a new drawable-hdpi/background.9.png file into the mix, it breaks button.png during the pre-compile. The error is "No resource found that matches the given name (at 'background' with value '@drawable/button').Simply removing that one nine patch file fixes the build. Should I be able to have some nine patch images and some normal ones, or to have nine patch only in hdpi but not mdpi or ldpi? This is Eclipse 3.5.1 with the latest ADT.
Just curious how many have this issue.If you are unsure select the link below and find out pls.

I want to market an overlay for Android Maps. It will provide the "speed limit". My map will have to query the internet for updates pretty heavily as one travels. Q: Should I just use the "Maps external Library" thing? http://code.google.com/android/add-ons/google-apis/maps-overview.html or Q: Can I somehow make it an option in the normal google-map system that everyone has on their phone?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI am trying to make a map overlay animated much like MyLocationOverlay does. Currently the only things that I can see to make animated are Views but Overlays don't extend View functionality. My next thought was to try to lodge a View into the overlay, but the redundancy makes it seem like this solution is incorrect. I grabbed the android source hoping that I could just look at MyLocationOverlay source and that would let me know how the animation was supposed to be done, but I can't find the source for anything involving maps. If that is available somewhere it would help. Can someone point me to the MyLocationOverlay source or let me know what the paradigm is supposed to look like for animating map overlays?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have subclassed Overlay as LandMarkOverlay (and implemented an onTap(GeoPoint) method).
In the main activity I do this:
setContentView(R.layout.main);
MapView mapView = (MapView) findViewById(R.id.mapview);
mapView.setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
landmarkOverlay = new LandmarkOverlay();
//add the landmarkOverlay to the list
mapView.getOverlays().add(landmarkOverlay);
What else do I need to do so that when the user taps the screen, landmarkOverlay's onTap(GeoPoint) method gets called?
I want to draw 20 pins on a MapActivity. Each pin has a small pin image, but I have to dynamically overlay a small bit of text over each pin at runtime.
Looks like I have two options:
#1) Itemized Overlay This is the suggested method. I put all my pins in one ItemizedOverlay object, and that counts as a single Overlay object for my MapView.
#2) One Overlay per pin Create a separate Overlay instance for each pin I need to render.
The problem I see with using method #1 is that you need to set a drawable for the item. This would mean that I need to create 20+20 (one for focused/non-focused state each) bitmaps and keep them in memory for the duration of my app. On the other hand, Overlay lets you override the draw method so I can do the simple compositing at runtime.
The other issue with Itemized Overlay - although it handles focus for you - does it move the focused item to the front of the z-order when selected?
I have been banging away at this one for weeks and I feel like I have exhausted my research capabilities. I am hoping that someone will see my error in the code posted below. The code is completely functional doing everything I need, but there is a major memory leak. When I try to track memory in the DDMS, the VM Heap tells me that my object count is relatively stable and the used memory is also relatively stable (it comes back down to a similar value after each GC after panning).
When I look at the memory pie chart, the free memory loses over 1meg of capacity with each map pan (overlay reload) and the Unknown memory grows. I have not found anything with the allocation tracker. Functional Summary: I load overlays onto a map based on data I get from polling my server. When I pan the map far enough I clear the overlays and load new ones.
MapFrontEnd.java (snippets): //header info private List<Overlay> overlays;
//in onCreate overlays = mapView.getOverlays();
// here I attempt to fully clean up my old Overlays for (Overlay i : overlays) {
if (i instanceof ParcelOverlay) ((ParcelOverlay) i).cleanUp(); }
I've been trying almost everything and been searching and reading everywhere on the net. I just can't seem to find the correct way of doing this.
I have a MapActivity with a MapView and I want to draw something on an Overlay. I'm overwriting the draw-method, and I can easily draw straight on the canvas using a paint. My problem is I want to merge some circles and afterwards color them. Therefore I want to create a Bitmap and then draw on that. I just don't know what to use. Should I use a mutable Bitmap, a BitmapDrawable or am I simply going in the wrong direction.
The reason I want to do this is because I want to draw some kind of heatmap upon the Google Maps, and I need to merge and blend different circles, so they appear to be just one big blob.

View 2 Replies View Relatedhave been dealing with placement of items in the ItemizedOverlay class with the google maps android library, which seems to work just fine. It handles the icon placments and associated properties of the icons that I place on the viewer.As of lately though, I noticed that I loose the satellite view altogether in the final zoom features of the map when I want to get in real close. I thought this would be a real good opportunity to use a blueprint of an area as an overly on the gridded map so that there were still areas of reference when analyzing an area up close. Unfortunately I have not been able to place a bounded region for the blueprint on the map. If I have latitude and longitude values for each corner of where the blueprint should be places, I can't seem to find a method to put this where I want it on the map.The only constructor/method that I have found only asks for a center point and then sizes the object appropriately. It seems odd that this feature wouldn't exist but I can't find anything to hint that it does exist. JFrog "Debugging is twice as hard as coding something the first time. Therefore, if you make your code as clever as possible, you are by definition, not smart enough to debug it."

The latter position overlay simply shows an updated blue dot.I update the location of the dot every second but the screen does not refresh. If I tap the scrren then the dot updates. Am I missing some hard refresh call somewhere? My Overlay code is small and shown below. Note that it does go into the draw routine every second and the point is changed.
