overlayitem

I'm building a map with a few dozen OverlayItems in a single ItemizedOverlay. My map is made to be viewed very close up (about zoom level 18+), with the OverlayItems in very close proximity to one another. The map looks good when zoomed in. However, if the user zooms out the icons begin to overlap and everything looks incredibly junky. Is there a way to control the OverlayItem icon size so that it scales with the map? If not, is there a way to hide the icons once a specific zoom level is reached? Any other suggestions on how to approach this problem? Joshc, fegruior, You folks may want to

I have a class : class MapItemizedOverlay extends com.google.android.maps.ItemizedOverlay<OverlayItem> { private Context context; private ArrayList items = new ArrayList(); public MapItemizedOverlay(Context aContext, Drawable marker) { super(boundCenterBottom(marker)); context = aContext; } public void addOverlayItem(OverlayItem item) { items.add(item); populate(); } @Override protected OverlayItem createItem(int i) { return (OverlayItem) items.get(i); } @Override public int size() { return items.size(); } @Override protected boolean onTap(int index) { OverlayItem item = (OverlayItem) items

I am trying to place a marker on a map overlay and then present a dialog when the user selects the drawable. The problem is the events seem to overlap. After I click the map and the marker is drawn, the onTap fires immediately afterwards, and because I have just drawn the marker, it is directly under the onTap event, so my dialog always fires. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make these events mutually exclusive? Here is the code for the map activity: public class SelectGameLocation extends MapActivity implements GestureDetector.OnGestureListener, GestureDetector.OnDoubleTapListener

I've been searching long for clear informations about the right way of extending ItemizedOverlay and OverlayItem, but the result I get does not satisfy me yet. In a few words, I need to show on a map different kind of markers related to a number of locations; the type of the marker to be displayed is determined by specific properties of the location itself. I will also need to display a certain marker when a marker is selected, and another one when the marker is unselected or unfocused. According to what I understand, this is what I wrote: public class MyItemizedOverlay extends ItemizedOverlay
