Marker.CollisionBehavior

Page Summary

• Marker.CollisionBehavior is an annotation that dictates how markers behave during collisions with other markers or map labels.

• It offers three collision behaviors: REQUIRED, REQUIRED_AND_HIDES_OPTIONAL, and OPTIONAL_AND_HIDES_LOWER_PRIORITY, controlling marker placement and visibility during overlaps.

• REQUIRED markers are always displayed, potentially overlapping others; REQUIRED_AND_HIDES_OPTIONAL markers are also always displayed but hide optional markers they overlap; OPTIONAL_AND_HIDES_LOWER_PRIORITY markers might be hidden by required markers or higher priority optional markers.

• By default, markers have REQUIRED collision behavior, meaning they will be displayed and may overlap with others.

public static abstract @interface Marker.CollisionBehavior implements Annotation

Indicates how the marker is dealt with when involved in a collision with other markers or base map labels.

Constant Summary

int	OPTIONAL_AND_HIDES_LOWER_PRIORITY	Set if the marker may be replaced/overlapped by a required marker or replaced by an OPTIONAL_AND_HIDES_LOWER_PRIORITY marker with higher priority.
int	REQUIRED	Set if the marker must be placed and may be overlapped with other markers or labels.
int	REQUIRED_AND_HIDES_OPTIONAL	Set if the marker must be placed and will hide any OPTIONAL_AND_HIDES_LOWER_PRIORITY markers or labels that would overlap with the marker.

Constants

public static final int OPTIONAL_AND_HIDES_LOWER_PRIORITY

Set if the marker may be replaced/overlapped by a required marker or replaced by an OPTIONAL_AND_HIDES_LOWER_PRIORITY marker with higher priority.

Constant Value: 2

public static final int REQUIRED

Set if the marker must be placed and may be overlapped with other markers or labels. This is the default behavior.

Constant Value: 0

public static final int REQUIRED_AND_HIDES_OPTIONAL

Set if the marker must be placed and will hide any OPTIONAL_AND_HIDES_LOWER_PRIORITY markers or labels that would overlap with the marker. It may be overlapped with other required markers.

Constant Value: 1
