I noticed that the position of the builtInZoomControls in WebView (bottom, horizontal right) is not consistent with the default position in the MapView (bottom, horizontal center).
1) Why is that not consistent? (Probably a question to be asked to Google)
2) Is there a way to horizontal center the builtInZoomControls of the WebView without applying custom Zoom controls? Or is that the only way?

Could we with the 1.5 sdk change the position of the zoomcontrol in a mapView as The setBuidInZoomControls (different of getControl()method is not a child of a view?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm working on an application that displays the location of moving items on a Google MapView. I need a way to update the position of the icons that represent the items (as well as change the facing of the icons every two seconds as updated data comes in). I currently have an activity in the app that extends MapActivity. On to this I have overlaid a static Overlay that draws some lines on the map and an ItemizedOverlay that draws a static icon.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI need to place additional image button "my current location" to a top right corner of the MapView. Any ideas how to do this?
Making the questions generic:
1) According to MapView documentation it is possible to attach additional view objects to a MapView. How to do this?
2) How to place such additional controls into specific position on MapView?
To put it simple: I want to bookmark the current position (probably several positions) in a html file displayed in a WebView to later restore it.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm new to Android. I would like to simply know where on a page the user has scrolled. When a certain point on the web page appears at the bottom of the screen, I want to trigger an event. But this code causes an exception. I know that WebView inherits getScrollY() from View. Am I not implementing it correctly?

On my htc i was looking through display, i see g sensor calibration and i perform this calibration and after i do so the screen seems to have a delay when switch from the horizontal position to the vertical position. its weird because when i switch to the phone horizontally it switch normally and responds fast. but when i switch back to vertically it takes almost 7 seconds to actually switch back, sometimes it switch within 2 or 3 secs but never as quick as switching horizontally.

If you're already updated, shut down and repower (soft reboot) should do the trick. I actually updated my phone and after it started to do this. I restarted the phone plenty of times i even took the battery out for 30 seconds. It only does it when im texting on the browser, basically everything but the camera. He camera screen rotation is perfect. I even rooted the phone but i havent figured out how to use the root to fix the problem. Should i do a firmware update? Because i just did the htc software update.

View 5 Replies View RelatedMy problem is my MapView becoming very laggy and so non-responsive at times, that Android thinks its hit deadlock and tries to close it.
I am adding 60 overlays to the map view and i originally thought that the icon size may be causing the problem by using up all the memory. When i decreased the overlay icon size, it did improve things, though it is still to slow to be usable. Has anyone experienced anything similar and have a workaround? There may be a better way of doing it other then extending the Hello MapView example.
How to get MapView API in android?
View 2 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?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to place my custom map (overlay) over Google map. For example, my MapView will be positioned to look at some building. I want to load custom image(s) that will show building's floor plan. Want to be able to pan and zoom, and place markers (for example, Room 1, Room 2, etc...), in other words, I would like to be able to use Google Map API methods. The best would be if Google map images are not loaded at all, since that will (I believe) slow down user's experience. Also, the user may be inside the building, and connection may be slow or non-existing.

View 5 Replies View Relatedi have a problem with my mapView. my app reads "some" gps points out of a file and i want to draw a route (drawing lines between the gps point). If my file contains many gps points, my app works really slow. i think its working slow, because i draw all overlays. now i want to check, whether a point is visible in my mapView or not. so i have to get the mapCenter and Lat/lon span (getLatitudeSpan,..) !? how and where must i save my points and how can i check all my points (after my mapCenter has changed for example). Shall I save my points in a list (in my Overlay class??) and iterate through every list item and check, wheter its visible or not?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've been reading the (shoddy) documentation for the Google Maps API (MapActivity et al), and I think I have roughly worked out how it works. It seems that if you want to add a marker overlay you can use ItemizedOverlay easily, but you have to add all your markers at once. There doesn't seem to be any way to remove them.
What I want to do is query markers from an online database as the user pans around (in the same way the actual map tiles are fetched). Is there a simple way to do this?
As far as I can tell I need to subclass Overlay and implement the draw method, but where is the best place to put the code that fetches new markers when the map is panned? There doesn't seem to be an onMapChanged() method anywhere. My best guess is MapController.onKey() but that seems wrong.
I'm seeing a bug with overlays on MapView with the Nexus One. Pinch and zoom multitouch gestures don't scale my overlays until the user releases the gesture, at which point the overlay redraws itself. In contrast, the My Location overlay in Google Maps WILL scale during the gesture. Is there a way to fix this in my app, or is this a MapView bug?

View 1 Replies View RelatedCurrently in my design I've got a base abstract class that all of my activities extend from, however I discovered recently that in order to use a MapView you need to make your activity extend MapActivity.

View 1 Replies View RelatedThe Android the MapView Overlay class mentions two draw methods. One regular, and one for animated overlays.
I have tried to find more information on how to animate overlays and use this second method, but it all keeps coming back to the same forum postings. Can anyone explain how you specify to the MapView that a certain Overlay should be animated? How do you specify the manner in which it animates?
If it's relevant, I'm currently trying to draw pins in the map that update in realtime with streaming GPS locations for objects. I get new data every two seconds and need to tween the locations by having the pins move in a simple straight line between coordinates.
