Hi, I am using kmz layers for image animation pourposes over a sceneview in Arcgis Runtime.This works fine but involves a lot of steps in code ( generate and export a png file, create kml, zip kml to kmz, import kmz to an Arcgis kml layer) .

I was wondering if there is a directe way to create the same effect wihout having to use an external file.

thanks

At this point the runtime does not support authoring kml/kmz. It is however on our future roadmap.

+1 - In my case I want to update the position of an image on the map at 10Hz.

Here is the code https://bitbucket.org/snippets/philipogorman/LE8kr

As you can see it is not very efficient for what I want to do.

Thanks,
