Graphics Layer question

JosephDwyer — Thu, 08 May 2014 14:08:14 GMT

Okay I'm fairly new to android programming and totally new to dealing with maps. So I have an app that has a map built in and I would like to overlayer a push pin that stays centered in the map at all times. So when you scroll or move the map around the pin stays in the middle of the map. I would also need to be able to get the location from the pin.

Any help would be greatly appreciated or a push in the right direction.

I was able to over lay the graphic that I wanted to use, but my next question is if I wanted to get the center point of the map how would I do that?

MapView.getCenter()

If you want to get that in lat/lon, use CoordinateConversion.pointsToDecimalDegrees() or any of the other coordinate conversions.
