Titanium.Map.View
> Titanium.Map.View

Map view is used for embedding native mapping capabilities as a view in your application.

deprecated

3.2.0 For new iOS and Android applications use the ti.map add-on module. Support for the Titanium.Map module in iOS and Android was removed in Release 3.2.0.

For all other platforms, continue to use this module.

With native maps, you can control the mapping location, the type of map, the zoom level and you can add custom annotations directly to the map. Once the map view is displayed, the user can pan and zoom the map using the native control gestures.

Use the Titanium.Map.createView method to create a map view.

All latitude and longitude values are specified in decimal degrees. Values in degrees, minutes and seconds (DMS) must be converted to decimal degrees before being passed to the map view.

You can add Annotation objects to the map to mark points of interest. An annotation has two states: selected and deselected. A deselected annotation is marked by a pin image. When selected, the full annotation is displayed, typically including a title, an optional subtitle, and one or more images.

Android Platform Notes

On Android, this module requires a Google Maps API v1 key. As of March 3, 2013, Google is no longer issuing Maps API v1 keys. If you want to add native maps support to your Android application, you need to use the ti.map add-on module.

Android supports only a single map view per application. This limitation is imposed by Android, not by Titanium. Attempting to add a second map view results in an exception being thrown.

If you have a Maps API v1 key, edit your tiapp.xml file and add your new key as the value for the ti.android.google.map.api.key.production property.

A development API key is included in the default tiapp.xml file. You can use this key for development and testing as long as you are building your application with the default Titanium development keystore.

iOS Platform Notes

Since Release 3.2.0, use the ti.map add-on module. Support for this module was removed.

On iOS, you cannot call any methods on a map view until it has been added to a view.

In addition to annotations, iOS supports adding routes to a map view, using addRoute.

Whether the view should be "hidden" from (i.e., ignored by) the accessibility service.

Requires: Android 4.0 and later iOS 5.0 and later

On iOS this is a direct analog of the accessibilityElementsHidden property defined in the UIAccessibility Protocol. The native property is only available in iOS 5.0 and later; if accessibilityHidden is specified on earlier versions of iOS, it is ignored.

On Android, setting accessibilityHidden calls the native View.setImportantForAccessibility method. The native method is only available in Android 4.1 (API level 16/Jelly Bean) and later; if this property is specified on earlier versions of Android, it is ignored.

A background gradient for the view. ...

A background gradient for the view.

A gradient can be defined as either linear or radial. A linear gradient varies continuously along a line between the startPoint and endPoint.

A radial gradient is interpolated between two circles, defined by startPoint and startRadius and endPoint and endRadius respectively.

The start and end points and radius values can be defined in device units, in the view's coordinates, or as percentages of the view's size. Thus, if a view is 60 x 60, the center point of the view can be specified as:

{ x: 30, y: 30 }

Or: { x: '50%', y: '50%' }

When specifying multiple colors, you can specify an offset value for each color, defining how far into the gradient it takes effect. For example, the following color array specifies a gradient that goes from red to blue back to red:

colors: [ { color: 'red', offset: 0.0}, { color: 'blue', offset: 0.25 }, { color: 'red', offset: 1.0 } ]

Android's linear gradients ignores backfillStart and backfillEnd, treating them as if they are true. Android's radial gradients ignore the endPoint property.

Examples

Linear and Radial Gradients

The following code excerpt creates two views, one with a linear gradient and one with a radial gradient.

var win1 = Titanium.UI.createWindow({
    title:'Tab 1',
    backgroundColor:'#fff',
    layout: 'vertical'
});

var radialGradient = Ti.UI.createView({
    top: 10,
    width: 100,
    height: 100,
    backgroundGradient: {
        type: 'radial',
        startPoint: { x: 50, y: 50 },
        endPoint: { x: 50, y: 50 },
        colors: [ 'red', 'blue'],
        startRadius: 50,
        endRadius: 0,
        backfillStart: true
    }
});
var linearGradient = Ti.UI.createView({
    top: 10,
    width: 100,
    height: 100,
    backgroundGradient: {
        type: 'linear',
        startPoint: { x: '0%', y: '50%' },
        endPoint: { x: '100%', y: '50%' },
        colors: [ { color: 'red', offset: 0.0}, { color: 'blue', offset: 0.25 }, { color: 'red', offset: 1.0 } ],
    }
});
win1.add(radialGradient);
win1.add(linearGradient);
win1.open();

Indicates if the proxy will bubble an event to its parent.

Some proxies (most commonly views) have a relationship to other proxies, often established by the add() method. For example, for a button added to a window, a click event on the button would bubble up to the window. Other common parents are table sections to their rows, table views to their sections, and scrollable views to their views. Set this property to false to disable the bubbling to the proxy's parent.

View height, in platform-specific units.

Defaults to: If undefined, defaults to either Titanium.UI.FILL or Titanium.UI.SIZE depending on the view. See "View Types and Default Layout Behavior" in Transitioning to the New UI Layout System.

Can be either a float value or a dimension string (for example, '50%' or '40dp'). Can also be one of the following special values:

  • Titanium.UI.SIZE. The view should size itself to fit its contents.
  • Titanium.UI.FILL. The view should size itself to fill its parent.
  • 'auto'. Represents the default sizing behavior for a given type of view. The use of 'auto' is deprecated, and should be replaced with the SIZE or FILL constants if it is necessary to set the view's behavior explicitly.

This is an input property for specifying the view's height dimension. To determine the view's size once rendered, use the rect or size properties.

This API can be assigned the following constants:

Sets the behavior when hiding an object to release or keep the free space ...

Sets the behavior when hiding an object to release or keep the free space

If setting hiddenBehavior to Titanium.UI.HIDDEN_BEHAVIOR_GONE it will automatically release the space the view occupied. For example: in a vertical layout the views below the object will move up when you hide an object with hiddenBehavior:Titanium.UI.HIDDEN_BEHAVIOR_GONE.

Specifies how the view positions its children. ...

Specifies how the view positions its children. One of: 'composite', 'vertical', or 'horizontal'.

There are three layout options:

  • composite (or absolute). Default layout. A child view is positioned based on its positioning properties or "pins" (top, bottom, left, right and center). If no positioning properties are specified, the child is centered.

    The child is always sized based on its width and height properties, if these are specified. If the child's height or width is not specified explicitly, it may be calculated implicitly from the positioning properties. For example, if both left and center.x are specified, they can be used to calculate the width of the child control.

    Because the size and position properties can conflict, there is a specific precedence order for the layout properties. For vertical positioning, the precedence order is: height, top, center.y, bottom.

    The following table summarizes the various combinations of properties that can be used for vertical positioning, in order from highest precedence to lowest. (For example, if height, center.y and bottom are all specified, the height and center.y values take precedence.)

    ScenarioBehavior
    `height` & `top` specifiedChild positioned `top` unit from parent's top, using specified `height`; any `center.y` and `bottom` values are ignored.
    `height` & `center.y` specifiedChild positioned with center at `center.y`, using specified `height`; any `bottom` value is ignored.
    `height` & `bottom` specifiedChild positioned `bottom` units from parent's bottom, using specified `height`.
    `top` & `center.y` specifiedChild positioned with top edge `top` units from parent's top and center at `center.y`. Height is determined implicitly; any `bottom` value is ignored.
    `top` & `bottom` specifiedChild positioned with top edge `top` units from parent's top and bottom edge `bottom` units from parent's bottom. Height is determined implicitly.
    Only `top` specifiedChild positioned `top` units from parent's top, and uses the default height calculation for the view type.
    `center.y` and `bottom` specifiedChild positioned with center at `center.y` and bottom edge `bottom` units from parent's bottom. Height is determined implicitly.
    Only `center.y` specifiedChild positioned with center at `center.y`, and uses the default height calculation for the view type.
    Only `bottom` specifiedChild positioned with bottom edge `bottom` units from parent's bottom, and uses the default height calculation for the view type.
    `height`, `top`, `center.y`, and `bottom` unspecifiedChild centered vertically in the parent and uses the default height calculation for the child view type.

    Horizontal positioning works like vertical positioning, except that the precedence is width, left, center.x, right.

    For complete details on composite layout rules, see Transitioning to the New UI Layout System in the Titanium Mobile Guides.

    • vertical. Children are laid out vertically from top to bottom. The first child is laid out top units from its parent's bounding box. Each subsequent child is laid out below the previous child. The space between children is equal to the upper child's bottom value plus the lower child's top value.

    Each child is positioned horizontally as in the composite layout mode.

    • horizontal. Horizontal layouts have different behavior depending on whether wrapping is enabled. Wrapping is enabled by default (the horizontalWrap property is true).

    With wrapping behavior, the children are laid out horizontally from left to right, in rows. If a child requires more horizontal space than exists in the current row, it is wrapped to a new row. The height of each row is equal to the maximum height of the children in that row.

    Wrapping behavior is available on iOS and Android (Release 2.1.0 and later). When the horizontalWrap property is set to true, the first row is placed at the top of the parent view, and successive rows are placed below the first row. Each child is positioned vertically within its row somewhat like composite layout mode. In particular:

    • If neither top or bottom is specified, the child is centered in the row.
    • If either top or bottom is specified, the child is aligned to either the top or bottom of the row, with the specified amount of padding.
    • If both top and bottom is specified for a given child, the properties are both treated as padding.

    If the horizontalWrap property is false, the behavior is more equivalent to a vertical layout. Children are laid or horizontally from left to right in a single row. The left and right properties are used as padding between the children, and the top and bottom properties are used to position the children vertically.

    On Android and iOS prior to Release 2.1.0, the horizontal layout always wraps and the horizontalWrap property is not supported.

Default: Composite layout

left : Number/String

View's left position, in platform-specific units.

View's left position, in platform-specific units.

This position is relative to the view's parent. Exact interpretation depends on the parent view's layout property. Can be either a float value or a dimension string (for example, '50%' or '10px').

This is an input property for specifying where the view should be positioned, and does not represent the view's calculated position.

width : Number/String

View's width, in platform-specific units.

View's width, in platform-specific units.

Defaults to: If undefined, defaults to either Titanium.UI.FILL or Titanium.UI.SIZE depending on the view. See "View Types and Default Layout Behavior" in Transitioning to the New UI Layout System.

Can be either a float value or a dimension string (for example, '50%' or '40dp'). Can also be one of the following special values:

  • Titanium.UI.SIZE. The view should size itself to fit its contents.
  • Titanium.UI.FILL. The view should size itself to fill its parent.
  • 'auto'. Represents the default sizing behavior for a given type of view. The use of 'auto' is deprecated, and should be replaced with the SIZE or FILL constants if it is necessary to set the view's behavior explicitly.

This is an input property for specifying the view's width dimension. To determine the view's size once rendered, use the rect or size properties.

This API can be assigned the following constants:

Z-index stack order position, relative to other sibling views.

Z-index stack order position, relative to other sibling views.

A view does not have a default z-index value, meaning that it is undefined by default. When this property is explicitly set, regardless of its value, it causes the view to be positioned in front of any sibling that has an undefined z-index.

Methods

Adds a child to this view's hierarchy. ...

Adds a child to this view's hierarchy.

The child view is added as the last child in this view's hierarchy.

Although all views inherit from Titanium.UI.View, not all views are capable of containing other views. In particular:

  • Some views are not designed to be containers at all.
  • Some views are special-purpose containers that can only contain certain other views.
  • Some views are top-level containers that cannot (or should not) be added to other views.

Non-Container Views

The following views are not intended to act as containers that can hold other views:

Adding children to the these views may be supported on some platforms, but is not guaranteed to work across platforms. Where it is supported, it may not work as expected.

For maximum portability, these views should be treated as if they do not support children. Instead of adding children to these views, applications can positon other views as siblings. For example, instead of adding a button as a child of a WebView, you can add the button to the web view's parent such that it appears on top of the web view.

Special-Purpose Containers

A few view objects act as special-purpose containers--that is, they only manage certain types of children, and many of them support a special means of adding these children, instead of the general add method. These containers include:

  • ButtonBar and TabbedBar are designed to hold their own internally-created buttons, assigned by adding strings to the "labels" array. Views added using the add method are displayed on top of these buttons.

  • Picker. Can only hold PickerRows and PickerColumns, which are added using the add method. Adding other types of views to a Picker is not supported.

  • TableView is a specialized container for TableViewSection and TableViewRow objects. These objects must be added using the properties and methods that TableView provides for adding and removing sectons and rows.

    On some platforms, it is possible to add arbitrary child views to a table view using the add method. However, this is not guaranteed to work on all platforms, and in general, should be avoided.

  • TableViewSection is a specialized container for TableViewRow objects, which are added using the add method. The add method on TableViewSection can only be used to add TableViewRow objects.

  • Toolbar is designed to hold buttons and certain other controls, added to its items array. Views added using the add method are displayed on top of the controls in the items array.

  • The Tab, TabGroup, NavigationWindow and SplitWindow objects are special containers that manage windows. These are discussed in the "Top-Level Containers" section.

Top-Level Containers

There are certain top-level containers that are not intended to be added as the children of other views. These top-level containers include Titanium.UI.Window, Titanium.UI.iPad.SplitWindow, Titanium.UI.iOS.NavigationWindow, and Titanium.UI.TabGroup. Other types of views must be added to a top-level container in order to be displayed on screen.

The special containers Titanium.UI.iOS.NavigationWindow, Titanium.UI.iPad.SplitWindow, Titanium.UI.Tab, and Titanium.UI.TabGroup manage windows. These managed windows may be referred to as children of the container, but they are not added using the add method.

Tab is another kind of special container: it is not itself a top-level container, but can only be used within a TabGroup. You cannot add a Tab to an arbitrary container.

Parameters

Returns

  • void
( animation, callback )
Animates this view. ...

Animates this view.

The Animation object or dictionary passed to this method defines the end state for the animation, the duration of the animation, and other properties.

Note that if you use animate to move a view, the view's actual position is changed, but its layout properties, such as top, left, center and so on are not changed--these reflect the original values set by the user, not the actual position of the view.

The rect property can be used to determine the actual size and position of the view.

Parameters

Returns

  • void
Applies the properties to the proxy. ...

Applies the properties to the proxy.

Properties are supplied as a dictionary. Each key-value pair in the object is applied to the proxy such that myproxy[key] = value.

Translates a point from this view's coordinate system to another view's coordinate system. ...

Translates a point from this view's coordinate system to another view's coordinate system.

Returns null if either view is not in the view hierarchy.

Keep in mind that views may be removed from the view hierarchy if their window is blurred or if the view is offscreen (such as in some situations with Titanium.UI.ScrollableView).

If this view is a Titanium.UI.ScrollView, the view's x and y offsets are subtracted from the return value.

Starts a batch update of this view's layout properties. ...

Starts a batch update of this view's layout properties.

deprecated since 3.0.0

Use the <Titanium.Proxy.applyProperties> method to batch-update layout properties.

To prevent a layout pass each time a property is modified, call startLayout before changing any properties that may change this view's layout. This initiates a batch update mode where layout changes are deferred.

Call finishLayout to end batch update mode and trigger a layout pass. For example:

view.startLayout();
view.top = 50;
view.left = 50;
view.finishLayout();

Note that any property changes made during the batch update may be deferred until finishLayout is called. This may vary somewhat by platform. For example, changing the text of a label may trigger a layout pass. In iOS, updating the label text is deferred.

Returns an image of the rendered view, as a Blob.

The honorScaleFactor method is only supported on iOS.

Parameters

  • callback : Callback<Titanium.Blob> (optional)

    Function to be invoked upon completion. If non-null, this method will be performed asynchronously. If null, it will be performed immediately.

  • honorScaleFactor : Boolean (optional)

    Determines whether the image is scaled based on scale factor of main screen. (iOS only)

    When set to true, image is scale factor is honored. When set to false, the image in the blob has the same dimensions for retina and non-retina devices.

Returns

Performs a batch update of all supplied layout properties and schedules a layout pass after they have been updated.

deprecated since 3.0.0

Use the <Titanium.Proxy.applyProperties> method to batch-update layout properties.

This is another way to perform a batch update. The updateLayout method is called with a dictionary of layout properties to perform the batch update. For example:

view.updateLayout({top:50, left:50});

This is equivalent to the following:

view.startLayout();
view.top = 50;
view.left = 50;
view.finishLayout();

Events

Titanium.Map.View
Fired when the user selects, deselects, or clicks on an annotation. ...

Fired when the user selects, deselects, or clicks on an annotation.

Note that the click event is not fired every time the user clicks on the map. It is fired in two circumstances:

  • If the user clicks on an annotation.
  • The user deselects an annotation.

On iOS, the user deselects an annotation by clicking in the map view outside of the annotation. On Android, if hideAnnotationWhenTouchMap is set to true, the user deselects an annotation by clicking in the map view outside of the annotation. Otherwise, the user deselects an annotation by clicking on the annotation pin.

The click event includes a value, clicksource, which describes the part of the annotation that was clicked. Note that the possible values for clicksource differ between platforms.

On iOS, if the user clicks on the pin or annotation, the clicksource is one of: pin, annotation, leftButton, rightButton, leftView, rightView, title, or subtitle. If the user deselects the annotation by clicking elsewhere in the map view, clicksource is null.

On Android, the clicksource can be one of pin, title, subtitle, leftPane, or rightPane. If the user deselects an annotation by clicking on the pin, clicksource is pin. If the user deselects the annotation by clicking elsewhere in the map view, clicksource is null.
