Hi,
I took a look at overlays, but i am facing a problem:
The pin/droid is drawn at the location that is hardcoded. WHat i wish to do. is draw the pin/droid on screen, which was last touched. The SDK doesnt give any examples regarding that. Can you help me?

Thanks!

EDIT
I was able to come up with an idea. from this code I got (from mobiForge). It updates the lat and long in a Toast.

MODIFIED PROBLEM:
ANd I want to draw a pushpin, where I just clicked. What function sould I use for that?



Thanks

Hello thetuxracer,

It sounds to me like you may be using an object which extends the ItemizedOverlay<T>. If this is the case, you are probably holding a collection of your parameterized type (or perhaps a reference to just a single T).

Anyways, on your onTouchEvent, you probably want to do something like this:

if using a collection
-- clear your collection
-- call setLastFocusedIndex(-1) in the ItemizedOverlay class
-- add the NEW pin overlay to your collection, providing the new coordinates

if using a single reference
-- call setLastFocusedIndex(-1) in the ItemizedOverlay class
-- to your reference, assign the NEW pin overlay.

Hope this is helpful, please let me know if this works out for you.

Good Luck!

wow, that was totally new, but will read-up on it. i also had thought of something like that, to the effect that i will create an overlay dynamically, and use add(Overlay).

thanks for the reply, danke schoen.
