I have a slow internet connection (TIA - This Is Africa) so it'll be a while before the video is finished downloading. In any case, I couldn't wait for that so I swapped out the control, opened up a sample when my app no longer loaded... changed my XAML and added a LayerOverlay (to which I added my layers). After one or two small extras i'm done. My map now loads.
Simple enough. I see some functions have been deprecated... thanks for using the obsolete tag... it makes life easier:P
So far the control looks pretty good. I like the threading. It's adding to the responsiveness of the UI for sure. I can see that a lot of hours have gone into making this control work with threading.
I am very happy with this release. Thank you.
The only thing that's bugging me a bit is panning... it seems a little non-responsive / sluggish. Is this something that could likely improve?
