Wearable Maps - Adding Pin to MapView

Hello,

I am testing the sample .NET Code for Maps providded on the developer.tizen.org website (https://github.com/Samsung/Tizen-CSharp-Samples/tree/master/Wearable/Maps) and it seems that no pin image loads when a new pin is added to a mep

var pin = new Pin(new Geocoordinates(DEFAULT_LAT, DEFAULT_LON));

s_mapview.Add(pin); 

 

This works for a Mobile application, but not Wearable. Is this a known limitation of the platform or does the pin need a special sizing for Wearables?

Thanks

The best and fastest way to get your answer would be to add an Issue on the specific Github Repository for the Sample app:

https://github.com/Samsung/Tizen-CSharp-Samples/issues

By adding an Issue, You may get addressed by the Sample app developers. Please share your findings on this post here, that may sort the way out for the developers stuck at same scenario.

Excellent Suggestion, I've done that and will post my findings to this forum. Thank you.

Also,

  • The map should occupy a large proportion of the screen. This is necessary to optimize the usability of the map on the small form factor of a wearable device.
  • When designing the user experience of your app, take into account the fact that a wearable device has low battery power. Keeping the screen active and the map visible will impact battery performance.
