    Tiago d'Atalaia
    Hello migurski,
    you are right when you say that the big part of my problem is about my Flash inexperience! And I must say that you have an excelente support because none of my questions have been without an answer!
    For that, congratulations!

    However, about the topic, (an behiond the fact of lack of experience), there could be more updates relative to the library, like someone has already told of a version 2. But the hardest I find, is the lack of examples, a manual, tutorial or a startup help explaining the ways of ModestMaps.

    Even if you find that too "rookie level", that can lead to people like me to hold on better to your project, and everybody wins.

    I totally respect if the majority thinks otherwise!

    Regards.

    Tiago d'Atalaia replied on January 12, 2009 15:42 to the question "TAGing Markers" in Modest Maps:

    Tiago d'Atalaia
    Already done the 1st tag part:

    class SampleMarkerVerde
    extends MovieClip
    {
    public static var symbolName:String = '__Packages.SampleMarkerVerde';
    public static var symbolOwner:Function = SampleMarkerVerde;
    public static var symbolLink:Boolean = Object.registerClass(symbolName, symbolOwner);

    public function SampleMarker()
    {
    moveTo(-6, -6);
    lineStyle(3, 0x00FFFF, 100);
    lineTo(6, 6);
    moveTo(-6, 6);
    lineTo(6, -6);
    var TAG: Object = createTextField('status', getNextHighestDepth(), 7, -10, 70, 20);
    TAG.selectable = false;
    TAG.textColor = 0x000000;
    TAG.text = "Marker 1";
    //TAG._height = TAG.textHeight + 2;
    }
    }

    Now I need in some way to input this text in the putMarker function! Like:

    root.container.map.putMarker('a',new Location(lat,lon), SampleMarker("Marker 1").symbolName);

    Please help.

    Sorry, I maybe I'm not explaining myself correctly.

    When you insert a marker (with the sample marker class), how can I had text field like a "tag".
    So, each time you call the samplemarker you can call it like this:

    _root.container.map.putMarker('a',new Location(lat,lon), SampleMarker("my home").symbolName);

    And close to the marker, the tag "my home" will appear.
    So you can identify any marker.

    Hope I'm more clear now.

    Tiago d'Atalaia
    oh! don't know.

    But I'm using the Modest maps classes, and the questions is about upgrading the marker class in a way it can pinpoint and put some text in each marker, so you can comment and/or identify it!

    class SampleMarkerVermelho
    extends MovieClip
    {
    public static var symbolName:String = '__Packages.SampleMarkerVermelho';
    public static var symbolOwner:Function = SampleMarkerVermelho;
    public static var symbolLink:Boolean = Object.registerClass(symbolName, symbolOwner);

    public function SampleMarkerVermelho()
    {
    moveTo(-6, -6);
    lineStyle(3, 0xFF0000, 100);
    lineTo(6, 6);
    moveTo(-6, 6);
    lineTo(6, -6);
    moveTo(7, 7);
    ->trying to define text in position (7,7); (don't know how!)
    }
    }

    TAGing Markers
    I'm trying to put a text tag in my markers!

    I'm using the class SampleMarker but don't know how to define a text field and insert some text!
    I was thinking in defining the SampleMarker in a way you caal it like:
    SampleMarker("Hello!")

    But no success, still to rookie in this.

    Tiago d'Atalaia
    Great! It works like a charm!
    Finally I get no errors and my app is working fine, I made an executable file wich gets positions from a .mdb with Zinc.

    steps:
    -file Map.as, in the function

    private function callCopyright():Void

    -commented the line
    //getURL('javascript:try{modestMaps.copyright("'+.........

    it's perfect now. thanks.

    I'm rather freshman at this, normally I program C#.

    So... how can I do that?
    What are these copyright strings that it uses? Why don't they work on executable flash?

    Thanks for your fast answer RandomEtc.

    ACTransit Cross-X Tiles
    Hello,

    I'm starting to use Modest Maps, well, I can't seem to find good examples and sample source code, nor the tutorials/manual (just the ACTransit).

    Also I was able to follow the ACTransit example but it misses something. It gives me plenty of Cross Tiles and in standalone it gives the following output:

    More, it makes to much zoom out to the point there's a tiny map square and the rest are cross tiles!

    Using Flash AS2.

    Thanks in advance.
