[android-developers] Re: Button On Map
Hi
I asked the question on this mailing list myself with no response
(http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/
thread/ac596b6b85d2548c#). So a friend makes me pay attention to your
thread.
How did you manage to get that speech bubble on your map?
I used the MyItemizedOverlay.java from the MapsView-Tutorial.
I found out that there are 2 onTap calls:
protected boolean onTap(int index)
{
return true;
}
and
public boolean onTap(GeoPoint p, MapView mapView) {
return true;
}
What to change in this functions to get the speech bubble?
Should I set something to allow an onTap call?
Where can I find more about that stuff. Google's reference is a little
bit confusing to me.
Thank You and
Best wishes to all of you :-D

Hi,
Don't know if this will still be useful, but here goes.
To bring up a map on the emulator I have 3 different parts:
1) A Class that extends MapActivity
Something like
import com.google.android.maps.MapActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
public class MapApp extends MapActivity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
}
@Override
protected boolean isRouteDisplayed() {
return false;
}
}
2) The layout file, here main.xml, should be something like
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
LinearLayout xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/
android
android:orientation=vertical
android:layout_width=fill_parent
android:layout_height=fill_parent
com.google.android.maps.MapView
android:id=@+id/mapView
android:layout_width=fill_parent
android:layout_height=fill_parent
android:enabled=true
android:clickable=true
android:apiKey=my_api_key
/
/LinearLayout
*** Where my_api_key is your own api key.
3) And lastly there are 2 bits you will need to add to your
manifest.xml file
a) uses-library android:name=com.google.android.maps /
--- This goes inbetween the application
/application tags
b) uses-permission
xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android;
android:name=android.permission.INTERNET
--- I've put this after the /application tag
/uses-permission
This might not be the quickest, best etc way to do it but it will show
a map you can pan around (look at the api if you want to add zoom
functionality)
Hope this was what you were asking for and not a waste of time haha :D

[android-developers] Re: Button On Map
Its ok I figured out how to pin buttons to GeoPoints so all is fine now. On Jan 20, 8:17 pm, Cadge carruthersgor...@googlemail.com wrote: Currently I have a MapView and an Itemized overlay which displays different locations on the map. When one of these locations is tapped the onTap method creates a new Overlay object which draws an empty speech bubble (the type you would find normally on google maps). What I want to do is then populate this empty speech bubble with some buttons but I am unsure how to do the following: 1) Get a reference to a button from an xml file in the Overlay class ( can't use findViewById() as it isn't an Activity? ). 2) Pin a button so it stays with the speech bubble. Would it be best to create a new layout which contains buttons and place this over the speech bubble? Is that even possible? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Button On Map
As I learned from your below details that you are able to create Google Map Application. I am trying to do that but not able to use Mapview in application. Can you please give some details about how to bring up the simplest Google Map Application ?
