MKMapView ignores update of centerOffset in iOS 4

Question

I previously created a custom callout bubble as a subview to the MKAnnotationView because the built in callout is so limited. This requires me to change to centerOffset of

Answer 1

I have the same problem - centerOffset seems to be taken into account only the first time. It is changed internally, but the view is not moved - so what you need to do is move the view yourself.

You can move the view by adjusting its center with the required offset - the selected view remains aligned at the top-left corner with the unselected view, so you need to realign their centers. Here's my case:

Selected -> Unselected:

self.center = CGPointMake(self.center.x + 56.0, self.center.y + 130.0);
self.centerOffset = CGPointMake(5.0, -14.0);

Unselected -> Selected:

self.center = CGPointMake(self.center.x - 56.0, self.center.y - 130.0);
self.centerOffset = CGPointMake(64.0, -81.0);

Where 130 is the difference in height between the views(center point is at the bottom), and 56 is the difference between the X offsets of their centers.

Remember - you still need to change the center offset because it'll be taken into account when zooming.

Hope this helps, I've lost a few hours on this. Remember to submit a bug report to Apple.
