Question

I’m using this library https://github.com/jgilfelt/android-mapviewballoons in my android app and it is very useful. Now I’m trying to capture the event when you tap the balloon open. I’d want to launch a new activity after tapping on the text of the balloon open.
How can I do it?

Thanks at all

Answer 1

Check out the demo application of the library. In the simple example, replace

@Override
protected boolean onBalloonTap(int index, OverlayItem item) {
    Toast.makeText(c, "onBalloonTap for overlay index " + index,
    Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
    return true;
}

with

@Override
protected boolean onBalloonTap(int index, OverlayItem item) {
    // start your Activity here
    return true;
}
