Paint RadMap

Hello Armar,

In RadMap we are painting the objects using GDI+ and the Graphics class. I'm afraid that in this particular scenario, you might be hitting a limitation of the graphics engine. 

The rectangles seen in the screenshot, however, seem possible to render. I am assuming that you might be having hundreds or even thousands of neighboring rectangles having the same color. For that case, you can consider removing the unnecessary vertices and creating one big shape. This way you could reduce the number of objects and improve the performance and memory consumption.

I hope this will help. Let me know if you have further questions.

Hi Ammar, 

Sorry to hear that combining the rectangles is not suitable for your actual case. Please consider, however, that even if not all shapes get optimized, excluding the unnecessary vertices could still improve the performance. This will depend on the number of the affected shapes.

public class MapRectPoint : MapPoint
{
	public MapRectPoint(PointG location)
        : base(location, new Size(8, 8))
    { }

    protected override MapVisualElementInfo CreateVisualElementInfo(IMapViewport viewport)
    {
        GraphicsPath path = new GraphicsPath();

        RectangleL drawRect = new RectangleL(0 - this.Size.Width / 2, 0 - this.Size.Height / 2, this.Size.Width, this.Size.Height);
        path.AddRectangle(drawRect);

        PointL offset = MapTileSystemHelper.LatLongToPixelXY(this.Location, viewport.ZoomLevel);

        return new MapVisualElementInfo(path, offset);
    }
}

Additionally, you can also override the point's Paint method and completely customize how the shape is painted.
