Is there a way of disabling panning/zooming and keeping map overlays clickable?
I am specifically thinking about an ItemizedOverlay that I want to be tappable while denying users from moving around the map's viewport (It's for a game).
I've seen the same question answered but the answer sadly doesn't allow for overlay items to be clicked.
Thanks alot, best regards, Alex
I know this question is a little old but I had the same problem and found a workaround, it's not a graceful solution but appears to work.
First you have to create your own map subclass overriding the onTouchEvent handler
public class NonPannableMapView extends MapView { public NonPannableMapView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) { super(context, attrs, defStyle); } public NonPannableMapView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs){ super(context, attrs); } public NonPannableMapView(Context context, String apiKey) { super(context, apiKey); } @Override public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev) { //Handle a move so there is no panning or zoom if(ev.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE) return true; return super.onTouchEvent(ev); } } Then it's just a case of changing the MapView reference in your layout to NonPannableMapView.
Try this:
mapView.setBuiltInZoomControls(false); Hope that works! Have fun!
