Add CIMPictureGraphic to map

Question

What is the proper way to add CIMPictureGraphic to map? What properties should be set? I tried following code: var box = EnvelopeBuilder.CreateEnvelope(x - 10, y - 10, x + 10, y + 10, SpatialReferences.WGS84); var pictureGraphic = new CIMPictureGraphic { SourceURL = imgPath, PictureURL = imgPath, Box = box }; var overlay = _mapView.AddOverlay(pictureGraphic);‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ Image exist on path imgPath, but it is not shown on map.

Thanks. In case it helps anyone else, I could not get it to work until I put "file:///" in front of the image path! Also, I found it also works with .jpg images, not just .png.

Hi Max On further testing, I found that this code snippet works for 2.3. CIMPictureGraphic seems to work for 2D Maps at this point. A little bit of work is needed for 3D support still. It will be available in a future release. Note: * This specific overload of the AddOverlay method needs to be used. * SourceURL property is not being used currently. Used PictureURL instead. The only supported format to provide the URL currently are these: // e.g. local file URL (note the 3 slashes): // file:///> // file:///c:/images/symbol.png // e.g. network file URL: // file:///> // file://server/share/symbol.png // get the current mapview and point var mapView = MapView.Active; if (mapView == null) return; var pictureGraphic = new CIMPictureGraphic(); pictureGraphic.PictureURL = @"file:///E:/Stuff/MyImage.png"; pictureGraphic.Box = envelope; _graphic = mapView.AddOverlay(pictureGraphic); ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ Thanks Uma

OK, I suppose the question is closed in this case.
