Using Google maps iOS SDK I have implemented a mapView in that i have created markers as follows
// Creates a marker in the center of the map.
GMSMarker *marker = [[GMSMarker alloc] init];
marker.position = CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(-33.86, 151.20);
marker.title = @"Sydney";
marker.snippet = @"Australia";
marker.icon = [UIImage imageNamed:@"point1.png"];
marker.map = mapView_;
But i need to Display animated images ie some sequence of images to display, animated rings around a point, instead of original GMSMarker
sequence of images are point1.png point2.png point3.png point4.png point5.png
Can any one help me to achieve this
in
- (RMMapLayer *)mapView:(RMMapView *)mpView layerForAnnotation:(RMAnnotation *)annotation
{
UIImageView *pulseRingImg = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame: CGRectMake(-30, -30, 78, 78)];
pulseRingImg.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"PulseRing.png"];
pulseRingImg.userInteractionEnabled = NO;
CABasicAnimation *theAnimation;
theAnimation=[CABasicAnimation animationWithKeyPath:@"transform.scale.xy"];
theAnimation.duration=2.0;
theAnimation.repeatCount=HUGE_VALF;
theAnimation.autoreverses=NO;
pulseRingImg.alpha=0;
theAnimation.fromValue=[NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.0];
theAnimation.toValue=[NSNumber numberWithFloat:1.0];
pulseRingImg.alpha = 1;
[pulseRingImg.layer addAnimation:theAnimation forKey:@"pulse"];
pulseRingImg.userInteractionEnabled = NO;
[mapView addSubview:pulseRingImg];
[marker addSublayer:pulseRingImg.layer];
return marker;
}
PulseRing.png in [UIImage imageNamed:@"PulseRing.png"]
is
