Hello, I'm trying to add a simple simple in a geographical location (lat, lon) using the following code, but nothing appears. Note that the shape file renders correctly on the control. What am I doing wrong?):
<ig:XamMap Grid.Column="2" x:Name="MapMain">
<ig:XamMap.Layers>
<ig:MapLayer x:Name="BasicLayer">
<ig:MapLayer.Reader>
<ig:ShapeFileReader x:Name="BasicShapeReader" Uri="Maps\ShapeFiles\sample"/>
</ig:MapLayer.Reader>
</ig:MapLayer>
</ig:XamMap.Layers>
</ig:XamMap>
Private Sub ShowSymbol()
Dim symbolPoint As Point = MapMain1.MapProjection.ProjectToMap(New Point(23.15, 42.27))
Dim element As New SymbolElement()
element.SymbolOrigin = symbolPoint
element.Caption = "myCaption"
element.SymbolType = MapSymbolType.Bubble
element.SymbolSize = 20
MapMain.Layers(0).Elements.Add(element)
End Sub
Hi,
The coordinates of the symbolPoint are set according to the internal coordinate system of the MapMain1 control, so it is possible that because of differences between the coordinate systems of MapMain1 and MapMain, the point can't be visualized. Do you think this could be the case?
Best regards,Milana Zhileva
No, it is not the case. Here is the complete code for a single control that aims to show a map of europe and a bubble symbol. The map shows correctly, but the symbol does not appear.
Note that I use the europe shape file included in the Infragistics sample demo.
