[android-developers] Re: MapView Draggable Objects
You can use an ItemizedOverlay to add to the maps overlay collection. Then handle the onTouchEvent and onTap which have MotionEvent. By handling these events you can see which object in the overlay has focus or has been tapped and implement your own moving of the overlay objects (drawables with geopoints). Using the Projection object of the map you can convert from xy touch coordinates into geopoints to set your overlayitem. I don't know if this is the best way to handle it but it worked for me. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: MapView Draggable Objects
I haven't been able to drag but I have been able to use these methods to pick the marker and then remove and re-insert into the ItemizedOverlay. If anyone does have code for dragging please post. I would rather do it that way then the dumb work around I have now. Plus it looks much cooler!

yes, for more information look at the official mapview tutorial: http://developer.android.com/guide/tutorials/views/hello-mapview.html http://developer.android.com/guide/tutorials/views/hello-mapview.htmlat the end there are also about markers 2009/6/4 Alexander Davis alexdavisspec...@gmail.com Hey Is it easy/possible to drag marker objects in a MapView?

Yup there is info about markers, but what about making the markers draggable? I don't see anything...

Found something that might help you: view-source:http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/examples/marker-drag.html view-source:http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/examples/marker-drag.htmllook at the source of the site, its javascript but maybe the one in Android is also the same: more can be found here, I think:) http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/reference.html I am also in a search how to diplay a custom cloud box over the marker, and how to implement a click listener 2009/6/4 Alexander Davis alexdavisspec...@gmail.com Yup there is info about markers, but what about making the markers draggable?

[android-developers] Re: MapView Draggable Objects
It looks like it, yes. It also looks like a custom overlay that the developer wrote in order to make that work. Looking at the docs for the maps library, I don't see any overlay classes for doing that sort of thing, but you can always extend the base Overlay class and roll your own. That class gives you methods that you can override for drawing and handling touch events, and you can get a Projection object from the map view in your version of draw() in order to translate lat/ lon to screen coords for the current view.

[android-developers] Re: MapView Draggable Objects
Yeah, thats what I have gleaned from the other group posts. Thanks for the info, I appreciate it. I'll look into it more and maybe make my own package to make this easier.

I should add that this is in no way closed. If you have a workaround, please poast!
