Hi Nick-

We don't yet have an official map callout in the API, but we are planning to add one for the Quartz release coming early next year.

With that said, you can write your own without too much effort. I did this for one of the demo apps at the UC this year. Please see this project - RuntimeQtSamples/sd_brewery_explorer at master · ldanzinger/RuntimeQtSamples · GitHub

I created a MapCallout.qml file, that is basically a styled rectangle with some text inside of it. When the user clicks on a feature, query the attributes of that feature, fill in the text in the rectangle with those attribute values, and set visibility to true/set the x and y to the screen x and y that the user clicked.

Thanks,

Luke
