I have developed a custom callout bubble that is nearly identical to the system callout bubble, but gives more flexibility over the height and content. It should be fairly trivial to adjust the appearance to suit your needs. See my post on the Asynchrony Solutions blog for example code and the steps required to implement … Read more
After trying different ways of limited MKMapView I’ve concluded that using mapDidChange, and resetting if you’re center point goes outside of the boundaries works best, with animated: YES Here’s how I do it (Using the New Zealand lat/Long span/center). – (void)mapView:(MKMapView *)mapView regionDidChangeAnimated:(BOOL)animated{ if ((mapView.region.span.latitudeDelta > 15.589921 ) || (mapView.region.span.longitudeDelta > 175.836914) ) { CLLocationCoordinate2D … Read more
The easiest technique is to just shift the map down, say 40% from where the coordinate would be, taking advantage of the span of the region of the MKMapView. If you don’t need actual pixels, but just need it to move down so that the CLLocationCoordinate2D in question is near the top of the map … Read more
Ok, so for solution use method from MKMapViewDelegate – (void)mapView:(MKMapView *)mapView didAddAnnotationViews:(NSArray *)views In this method you should rearrange AnnotationView after it was added to mapKit View. So, code may looks like this: – (void)mapView:(MKMapView *)mapView didAddAnnotationViews:(NSArray *)views { for (MKAnnotationView * annView in views) { TopBottomAnnotation * ann = (TopBottomAnnotation *) [annView annotation]; if … Read more
There are two ways of detecting user interaction with your annotation view. The common technique is to define a callout (that standard little popover bubble that you see when you tap on a pin in a typical maps app) for your MKAnnotationView. And you create the annotation view for your annotation in the standard viewForAnnotation … Read more
You are doing it right.You just need to have these methods implemented for adding button along with title and subtitle iOS 8 and Xcode 6 import UIKit import MapKit import CoreLocation class MapKitViewController: UIViewController, MKMapViewDelegate { let locationManager = CLLocationManager() @IBOutlet weak var nmapView: MKMapView! override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() locationManager.requestWhenInUseAuthorization() locationManager.startUpdatingLocation() let location = … Read more
One of the idea I came up is to create a CGPath and stroke it with gradient every time when drawMapRect method been called, since the MKPolylineView is replaced by MKPlolylineRenderer in ios7. I tried to implement this by subclassing a MKOverlayPathRenderer but I failed to pick out individual CGPath, then I find a mysterious … Read more
some more 😉 And the original ones : And the code: – (MKAnnotationView*)mapView:(MKMapView*)mapView viewForAnnotation:(id <MKAnnotation>)annotation { MKPinAnnotationView* anView =[[MKPinAnnotationView alloc] initWithAnnotation:annotation reuseIdentifier:@”test”]; anView.pinColor=MKPinAnnotationColorPurple; UIImage* image = nil; // 2.0 is for retina. Use 3.0 for iPhone6+, 1.0 for “classic” res. UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(anView.frame.size, NO, 2.0); [anView.layer renderInContext: UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()]; image = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext(); UIGraphicsEndImageContext(); NSData* imgData = UIImagePNGRepresentation(image); NSString* … Read more
First of all, MKMapView does not use/have a predefined set of zoom levels like Google Maps does. Instead, the visible area of a MKMapView is described using MKCoordinateRegion, which consists of two values: center (the center point of the region), and span (the size of the visible area around center). The center point should be … Read more
It should first be noted that the simplest changes to the callout are enabled by simply adjusting the properties of the system provided callout, but customizing the right and left accessories (via rightCalloutAccessoryView and leftCalloutAccessoryView). You can do that configuration in viewForAnnotation. Since iOS 9, we have access to the detailCalloutAccessoryView which, replaces the subtitle … Read more
