Attach image to Feature object

#1

I am trying to not use the combination of the Maker and Feature. I need to attach different PNG icons to each of the 500 vehicles basing on the MovingVehicleWithChangingLabel example. I would like to make the refresh of the Overlay after the updating loop of all 500 Features. Is there any other way for changing of the image then using:ZoomLevelSet.ZoomLevel01.DefaultPointStyle.Image in this case? Whatever DefaultPointStyle.Image is used during refreshing or EditTools.Update?

Hi Piotr,

  1. You can use our ValueStyle, make the image related with one target column of the feature, here is a simple sample:
    http://wiki.thinkgeo.com/wiki/source_code_wpfeditionsample_defaultvaluestyle_cs_110218.zip
    And you can find the sample here: http://wiki.thinkgeo.com/wiki/map_suite_desktop_edition_all_samples#default_valuestyle

  2. It’s a more complex solution, you should want to implement a custom layer, and override its DrawCore function, then dynamic build the image path and draw the image there.

Wish that’s helpful.

Don
