Not understanding drawAt() method for com.google.android.maps.Overlay
android, google-maps, overlay
Solution
I think your problem may simply be that you haven't set the bounds on the drawable in `drawAt()`. You can either manually set the bounds using `Drawable.setBounds()`, or you can use ItemizedOverlay's convenience methods `boundCenter()` or `boundCenterBottom()`.
I believe the reason the second method works is because with a decoded Bitmap you don't have to specify the bounds of the Drawable.
Problem
Trying to make an google maps overlay in an android program. Inside of my overlay's draw method, I have two ways of adding a pin. One of them works, and one does not. Unfortunately, the one that does not work is also the only one that has the ability to add a shadow! Any help? ``` @Override public void draw(android.graphics.Canvas canvas, MapView mapView, boolean shadow) { Point po = mapView.getProjection().toPixels(mapView.getMapCenter(), null); // This does _not_ work, but I would really like it to! drawAt(canvas, mapView.getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.map_marker_v), po.x, po.y, false); // This does work, but only does half the job canvas.drawBitmap(BitmapFactory.decodeResource(mapView.getResources(), R.drawable.map_marker_v), po.x, po.y, null); } ``` Edit: fixed type
