I am looking for code examples of how to draw a description box when clicking on a map marker. Something similar to google map's implementation - http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/examples/icon-custom.html (Click on the marker to see an example)

I am displaying google map and on top of that some overlay items(Markers) are there. When tapping on the markers, I need to display PopUpWindow. The code is executing but popup is not displaying.
popUp.showAtLocation(layout, Gravity.TOP, 0, 0); popUp.setFocusable(true); popUp.setTouchable(true); popUp.setOutsideTouchable(false); popUp.update(0,50, 320, 70);
Here layout is an object of LinearLayout.
I created another android application, in that, I put the above code and its working perfectly. PopupWindow is displaying.
I'm building a google map application that marks several points on the map. I'm currently trying to get the dialog box to appear when the marker is clicked. Right now, the markers appear at the right places but when i click them, the entire application stops unexpectedly/forced to close.Does anyone have any suggestions on what is wrong and how i should go about fixing it?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to display the status of the activity execution on the screen using the TextView while activity is executing. I am appending the String messages at different stages of execution in the TextView, which is defined in the Layout main.xml (e.g. TextView.append("Server started..").
For e.g. I am running socket communication application in which my android application is the server and it is receiving the messages from the local desktop. So in this application I want to show "Server started.." message when socket server on android started , then a messge "waiting for message.." and then "message receivied.." when message received by android server.All 3 steps are the part of a single activity.
But in my case, I am getting all 3 messages at a time after activity execution completed. Is there any API available, using which I can show the status during the execution also.
In my application when a user clicks on a button I want to open the contacts application and display a particular contacts information. At the minute I have this:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, People.CONTENT_URI);
startActivity(intent);
This displays the contact application with all the contacts displayed. But how do I get it to display just one contact according to the contacts name or number?
This Code works: (answer)
Uri contactUri = ContentUris.withAppendedId(People.CONTENT_URI, 23);
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, contactUri);
startActivity(intent);
I am a Mac user (photographer/ videographer). I also rely heavily on my iPod Touch when mobile (i can often find a wifi signal when i am out and about). I use iCal on the Touch and iCal on my Mac as well as the address book on both everyday and as a Mobile Me user, my two devices sync so everything is mirrored and up to date. I also HATE AT&T for their terrible signal strength and coverage and have been a loyal Verizon customer for many years and this is why I don't have an iPhone. Okay, all that being said, is there an easy way to still use everything I love and rely on with my Mac (the calender and address book, mainly) and easily sync all of my existing information and future info to an Android based device? How easy is it to use an Android device with a Mac? I don't want to have to manually re-enter my entire address book into a new device.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI want to create a mapview marker with 4 elements:
- picture (of user)
- background
- text (username)
- Arrow to show an direction
OverlayItem.setMarker() accept only a drawable.
How can I create an drawable with 4 Items? Or can i add an View as marker to overlayItem?
any ideas?
I displayed map and on top of map, I displayed a number of overlay Items(Markers). Clicking on overlay Items or markers will do some action. But the problem is when I click around the marker, means outside the marker, at that time also, the event triggers. I want to restrict that exactly when I am clicking on the marker, event has to take place. I am doing the event in opTap() method.
How can I restrict the event triggering to exactly when I click on the marker.
I can draw overlay items onto google maps just fine, an image that looks like:
_____
| |
______
/
Where the "/" part is the "pin" that marks the lat/lon on the map and a picture in the middle of it. My question is, is there any way to expand this when the user clicks on it? I'll of course have to change this to some kind of dialog or layout and change it when it gets clicked.
I want to have it smaller like that with just an image when not clicked on, but when it is clicked on it expands over like a second to:
--------------------------------------
| <image> <buttons> |
| <buttons> |
| <some info here> |
| |
--------------------------------------

Is this possible?
How do I add a marker on a particular location in the map?

Why I have to code so much for it. Like, I dont want to care about...the position of the balloon (I just want to assign a geopoint) the layout of a basic balloon (Later on I might want to implement a xml based layout) the number of shown balloons (only display one at a time) the open/close behaviour of the balloon (close, when an other bollon is tabbed)
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am working on a MapView app in Android. I have three markers that I want to be able to use the Google Map API getlocation-function on, later on. In order to try it out I would like to move the marker with a drag and drop-function, and then check the location.
Anyone who has gotten a drag and drop to work on an android marker, or know a way to start figuring it out?
Just wondering if there is a standard/default overlay/marker that I can use in the MAPVIEW?
I have been searching on the web and all tutorials talk about extending the Overlay and put your custom image on it.

I thought this could be accomplished as follows:
