Question

I want to draw a circle on map view. I want the user to input the radius and for that radius I have to show circle on map. After that I have to display markers on some locations on that circle.

I know how to display markers on on map view.

How can I draw circle on map view and to show markers on that circle boundary.

Answer 1

In the implementation of the ItemizedOverlay, do something like the method drawCircle from the onDraw method

protected void drawCircle(Canvas canvas, Point curScreenCoords) {
    curScreenCoords = toScreenPoint(curScreenCoords);
    int CIRCLE_RADIUS = 50;
    // Draw inner info window
    canvas.drawCircle((float) curScreenCoords.x, (float) curScreenCoords.y, CIRCLE_RADIUS, getInnerPaint());
    // if needed, draw a border for info window
    canvas.drawCircle(curScreenCoords.x, curScreenCoordsy, CIRCLE_RADIUS, getBorderPaint());
}

private Paint innerPaint, borderPaint;

public Paint getInnerPaint() {
    if (innerPaint == null) {
        innerPaint = new Paint();
        innerPaint.setARGB(225, 68, 89, 82); // gray
        innerPaint.setAntiAlias(true);
    }
    return innerPaint;
}

public Paint getBorderPaint() {
    if (borderPaint == null) {
        borderPaint = new Paint();
        borderPaint.setARGB(255, 68, 89, 82);
        borderPaint.setAntiAlias(true);
        borderPaint.setStyle(Style.STROKE);
        borderPaint.setStrokeWidth(2);
    }
    return borderPaint;
}

@Override
protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) {
    Point p = new Point();
    for(OverlayItem item : items) {
        drawCircle(canvas, getProjection().toPixels(item.getPoint(), p));
    }
}
