Any Tips For A Draggable InfoWindow

RafaelFerraro — Fri, 08 Oct 2010 12:00:02 GMT

Hello,

I am trying to implement a draggable/moveable InfoWindow. Sounded easy at first, but it looks to be a lot more challenging than I originally thought. Has anyone done this, or have any good suggestions?

Rafael,

InfoWimdows are usually for providing information about a specific location. You probably want a titlewindow and to use the popupmanager to open it.

Robert,

Thanks for the reply. I have considered a draggable titlewindow, but its missing the anchor point that the infowindow provides.

The information being displayed is tied to a parcel so I need to anchor whatever component I use to some point within that parcel. My customer has requested the ability to move the infowindow around the map, instead of panning the map to reposition the infowindow.
