how to add jquery tool tip on bing map push pin i am facing issue on bing map push pin mouse hower info window having flickring .. Please suggest. using javascript /jquery
My opinion would be not to have jQuery/JavaScript tooltip, because your tooltip won't move if user move the maps using mouse/touch/zoom events.
Try with Bing InfoBox which has lots of features and default functionality baked in.

Hi StackOverflow Community.
I am struggling to add a text label along with a custom image pin in Xamarin forms custom map project.
Currently, i followed up the official Xamarin forms the documentation of how to implement custom pins on the map.
But want to extend a little more this functionality as showing also a label right below the pin is Critical for the application.
I wasn't lucky to find any custom solution for this
Could you please assist?
Below you can find the website solution I am using with google maps. Something like that needs to be created also for the Xamarin app
I want to be able to get directions to an address I have hard coded into a button. I want to be able to touch the button that reads "Directions Here" and have it switch to the bing maps application on the phone and give me driving directions...
Q: how can I open another application from within my application? or how can I get the directions to my address from a user's current location to appear?
You can use Bing Maps directions task. helping link http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsphone/develop/hh394024(v=vs.105).aspx
or you can use bing map Rest services. helping link: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff701713.aspx
I know that you can show current GPS moving location on map with WP7 but i have an application that works offline, i must show user's location according to some other already saved locations in application, how can i show user location?
If you have the coordinates and want to display on bing maps im afraid its not possible.. bing map doesn't work offline. You need some way to cache the map tiles but not on bing maps.. the terms of bing maps doesn't allow you to save their map images. you can look at the following links see if they do any help.
Map Tile Caching for Offline Viewing
Windows Phone 7 Map Control with custom layer in offline mode
if not you can try caching the location as an image tagged to the location..
I am creating a web application targeted for windows phone 7.5(Mango) with a map(Google or Bing which one will work best for me). It seems panning through swap and zoom through pinch is not working for google map and bing map. Pan and zoom works through buttons provided on the map. I need to know that there is work around to provide zoom through pinch or it is the mango limitation.
Thanx
This isn't going to work I'm afraid. When you pinch or pan within the WP7 browser, these interactions are translated into pinch / pan on the browser 'surface'. As a result, the JavaScript within the page does not receive these events. The only way to support this would be to 'intercept' the manipulation events, then feed that to the JavaScript code on the web-page (as described in this blog post). However, this requires native code - so isn't much good for a purely web-app.
I have a custom image for the pushpin in Bing Maps for Android. I want to add some text and an icon (png) to this pushpin. The text and icon should be on separate lines. Any help...?
If you want full control of the contents of an overlay entity on the map, you might want to try an Infobox instead.
Note, that this works for the ajax maps ... if you're using the ajax v7 map control, that should work on Android as well.
