Hi Neilz, regarding adding a Toast message, it is quite straightforward to do. Mark Murphy gives a great tutorial which shows the details of how to do this here: http://www.androidguys.com/2008/09/09/maps-itemizedoverlay-and-you/
Regarding Question 1 specifically, the title and snippet is not the same as the title and description that you give to the markers when you create these yourself in a My Maps Editor on a browser. Make sure you don't confuse the two! Unfortunately the native googlemaps implementation on the android is not very 'feature-rich', to put it lightly. I saw a Google keynote video which was recommending that implementors should just use the browser-based version of Google Maps rather than using the native android or iphone Google Maps implementations. They recommended this because they update the browser-based api far more often than the native implementations. I'm disappointed that Google is resting on it's laurels, expecting everybody to come up with the extra implementations themselves. They've actually already done the work: check out the My Maps Editor that's been released by Google on Android. They have an info-window popping up like you'd expect - shame that they haven't given us the source code so that we can learn from the implementation and do something of our own. I'm in the process of implementing an info window with map descriptions when a user taps on a marker, and it's taking me an age. If you or any one else has had any joy then please let me know. . cheers Theo --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
