Question

How to change the basic blue color of my-location layer.
And can I replace it with marker. Or i have to buld custom Tile.
And can i remove only pin with the radius and keep che locate-me tile

Answer 1

I didn't find any style cusomization. And the marker cannot be replaced.
I did a custom tile, and a custom getCurrentLocation function.
Here is my code:
First you need tile for the Locate me button in the top right corner. I add it to the Layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
tools:context="android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity" >
<fragment
android:id="#+id/tabs_fragment"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
class="com.bucons.savetime.MyMapFragment" />
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/myLocationButton"
android:layout_width="40dp"
android:layout_height="40dp"
android:padding="4dp"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:scaleType="fitCenter"
android:src="#drawable/ic_menu_mylocation"
android:background="#drawable/map_tile_bg" />
</RelativeLayout>
Needed resources are #drawable/ic_menu_mylocation
You can get it from: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BzGos46YSzYfWkRYS2ZMNmdZREk/edit
And for Background: #drawable/map_tile_bg:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:exitFadeDuration="#android:integer/config_shortAnimTime">
<item android:state_pressed="true">
<shape android:shape="rectangle">
<stroke
android:width="1px"
android:color="#color/map_tile_bg_stroke_pressed"/>
<solid android:color="#color/map_tile_bg_solid_pressed"/>
<corners android:radius="1dp"/>
</shape>
</item>
<item>
<shape android:shape="rectangle">
<stroke
android:width="1px"
android:color="#color/map_tile_bg_stroke"/>
<solid android:color="#color/map_tile_bg_solid"/>
<corners android:radius="1dp"/>
</shape>
</item>
</selector>
Color resourser are:
<color name="map_tile_bg_solid">#aaffffff</color>
<color name="map_tile_bg_stroke">#ffcccccc</color>
<color name="map_tile_bg_solid_pressed">#aaFF9933</color>
<color name="map_tile_bg_stroke_pressed">#ffcccccc</color>
And here is my fragment:
public class MyMapFragment extends SupportMapFragment {
//Current location Marker
private Marker myLocationMarker;
GoogleMap map = null;
public MyMapFragment() {
}
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
}
#Override
public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
setUpMapIfNeeded();
getCurrentLocation();
}
//set the map and set the tile for locate me button
private void setUpMapIfNeeded() {
// Do a null check to confirm that we have not already instantiated the map.
if (map == null) {
map = getMap();
// Check if we were successful in obtaining the map.
if (map != null) {
//Top right button for go to location
ImageButton locateMeTile = (ImageButton) getSherlockActivity().findViewById(R.id.myLocationButton);
locateMeTile.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
getCurrentLocation();
}
});
}
}
}
//retrieve the current position. Only once
private void getCurrentLocation() {
locationManager = (LocationManager) getSherlockActivity().getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
Criteria crit = new Criteria();
String towers = locationManager.getBestProvider(crit, false);
Location location = locationManager.getLastKnownLocation(towers);
Double glat = null;
Double glon = null;
if(location != null){
glat = location.getLatitude();
glon = location.getLongitude();
}
CameraPosition pos = new CameraPosition.Builder()
.target(new LatLng(glat, glon))
.zoom(10)
.build();
if(pos != null) {
currLocationChange(pos.target);
map.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newCameraPosition(pos));
} else {
Toast.makeText(getSherlockActivity(), R.string.main_error, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
//Add pin to the current Location or move existing
private void currLocationChange(LatLng loc) {
if(myLocationMarker != null) {
myLocationMarker.setPosition(new LatLng(loc.latitude,loc.longitude));
} else {
myLocationMarker = map.addMarker(new MarkerOptions()
.position(new LatLng(loc.latitude,loc.longitude)));
}
}
}
