Update on map changed
val scaleView: MapScaleView = findViewById(R.id.scaleView)
val cameraPosition = map.cameraPosition
// need to pass zoom and latitude
scaleView.update(cameraPosition.zoom, cameraPosition.target.latitude)
Full example with subscribing to map events and updating scale view
override fun onMapReady(googleMap: GoogleMap) {
map = googleMap
googleMap.setOnCameraMoveListener(this)
googleMap.setOnCameraIdleListener(this)
}
override fun onCameraMove() {
val cameraPosition = map.cameraPosition
scaleView.update(cameraPosition.zoom, cameraPosition.target.latitude)
}
override fun onCameraIdle() {
val cameraPosition = map.cameraPosition
scaleView.update(cameraPosition.zoom, cameraPosition.target.latitude)
}
Refer to the sample project on how to use scale view with other Android Maps SDK (Mapbox).
