I have googleMap (v2) with polyline that presents a route between the user current location and the destination point.
Now, I want to update the polyline according to th
*I have already done working on updating polyline path without removing the polyline. We can do this by changing the points of that polyline. Check below code.
This is the logic of setting new points to polyline.
/*Here the routes contain the points(latitude and longitude)*/
for (int i = 0; i < routes.size(); i++) {
Route route = routes.get(i);
if(polyline_path != null){
polyline_path.setPoints(route.points);
}
}
Detail Explanation:
private GoogleMap map_object;
private Marker marker_driver;
private Marker marker_drop_off;
private Polyline polyline_path;
private PolylineOptions polylineOptions_path;
