How do I add and animate a visual element along an arc, which I have created inside mapkit ? The following code will create a nice arc between two points. Imagine an animated visual that will represent an airplane flying along this arc. -(void)addArc { CLLocationCoordinate2D sanFrancisco = { 37.774929, -122.419416 }; CLLocationCoordinate2D newYork = { 40.714353, -74.005973 }; CLLocationCoordinate2D pointsArc[] = { sanFrancisco, newYork }; // MKGeodesicPolyline *geodesic; geodesic = [MKGeodesicPolyline polylineWithCoordinates:&pointsArc[0] count:2]; // [self.mapView addOverlay:geodesic]; } The

I was wondering if anyone knows of any subclasses for the MKAnnotationView class. On apples documentation they say one example is the MKPinAnnotationView so I was wondering if there were other pre-created subclasses like the one used to track the devices current location. If anyone has tips for creating my own subclass of the MKAnnotationView class that be great as well. Thanks, bubster I don't know of any other templates, but that does not mean that they don't exist. :) Anyway, here's how to create custom ones: Create a new class conforming to the MKAnnotation protocol. You will need to have

I want to hide or show a UIButton weather user's current location is visible on map. While testing the code xcode I can see meassage "User location view is NOT visible but should be. Showing...." on console in "didUpdateLocation" method if users location is not visible on map. How can I use this message to generate events in my case to hide or show a UIButton? Thanks for any help in advance. If you want to know whether the user location is contained in the currently displayed map region, you can check the userLocationVisible property in the regionDidChangeAnimated delegate method: - (void

I have issues to load 512x512px tiles in MKMapKit. The Server provides 512x512 .jpeg tiles. I could not find any solution or sample implementation for custom retina tiles in MKMapView. What I do: When I load them into MKMapView with overlay = [[MKTileOverlay alloc] initWithURLTemplate:template]; overlay.tileSize = CGSizeMake(512.0f, 512.0f); [_mapView insertOverlay:overlay atIndex:MAP_OVERLAY_INDEX_TILE level:MKOverlayLevelAboveLabels]; … tiles are scaling correct but only half of them is loaded (not only visually - i sniffed the requests and the tiles are missing) with overlay = [
