Unfortunately, MapView/MapActivity are not open source. Otherwise, I'd recommend looking at the source and perhaps cloning/subclassing MapActivity to give you the hooks you need. IMHO, these sorts of events should be handled by listeners rather than callbacks requiring subclasses, but that's just me. plusminus has created a workalike to MapView using Open Street Map over at http://osmdroid.googlecode.com/ -- possibly you will have better luck using it. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com _The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development_ Version 1.9 Published! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
