I am trying to add multiple pushpins to a bing map in a windows 10 app. I face the trouble that it is only the last added lat, long that gets added. Let me post my code:
map.xaml:
<Page
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:local="using:Hamburger_Heaven_Challenge"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
xmlns:Maps="using:Windows.UI.Xaml.Controls.Maps"
x:Class="Hamburger_Heaven_Challenge.Map"
mc:Ignorable="d">
<Grid Background="{ThemeResource ApplicationPageBackgroundThemeBrush}">
<Maps:MapControl x:Name="MyMap" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="10,10,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" Height="700" Width="1260">
</Maps:MapControl>
</Grid>
map.xaml.cs:
public sealed partial class Map : Page
{
PushPin pushPin = new PushPin();
public Map()
{
this.InitializeComponent();
AddPushPins();
AddIcon();
MyMap.Center = new Geopoint(new BasicGeoposition() {Latitude = 46.8442643, Longitude = 2.5992004 });
MyMap.ZoomLevel = 6;
}
public void AddPushPins()
{
pushPin.AddPushPin(46.8442643, 2.5992004);
pushPin.AddPushPin(48.873121, 2.374912);
}
public void AddIcon()
{
MapIcon myIcon = new MapIcon();
myIcon.NormalizedAnchorPoint = new Point(0.5, 1.0);
myIcon.Title = "Apartment here";
MyMap.MapElements.Add(myIcon);
for (int i = 0; i < pushPin.Items().Count; i++)
{
myIcon.Location = pushPin.MyGeopoint(i);
}
}
}
pushpin.cs:
internal class PushPin
{
private ObservableCollection<Geopoint> items;
public PushPin()
{
items = new ObservableCollection<Geopoint>();
}
public void AddPushPin(double latitude, double longitude)
{
items.Add(new Geopoint(new BasicGeoposition() { Latitude = latitude, Longitude = longitude }));
}
public Geopoint MyGeopoint(int i)
{
return items[i];
}
public ObservableCollection<Geopoint> Items()
{
return items;
}
}
I think my problem is that i constantly override the mapicon i previously created but how do i get around this?
Any point in the right direction would be appreciated!
Ps. I have tried with binding to an ObservableCollection
but we havent been tought enough about databinding for me to figure it out.
The problem was more simple than I imagined. I was a dummy tbh.
public void AddIcon()
{
for (int i = 0; i < pushPin.Items().Count; i++)
{
MapIcon myIcon = new MapIcon();
myIcon.NormalizedAnchorPoint = new Point(0.5, 1.0);
myIcon.Title = "Apartment here";
MyMap.MapElements.Add(myIcon);
myIcon.Location = pushPin.MyGeopoint(i);
}
}
