User Interactions in ASP.NET Core Maps control

Options like zooming, panning, single click and double click, highlight and map selection enables the effective interaction on Map elements.

Zooming

The zooming feature enables you to zoom in and zoom out a map to show in-depth information. It is controlled by using the zoomFactor property of the zoomSettings. When the zoomFactor is increased, the map is zoomed in. When the zoomFactor is decreased, the map is zoomed out.

Enable zooming

To enable the zooming feature, set the zoomSettings.enable to true in maps.

Enable panning

To enable the panning feature, set the EnablePanning property of zoomSettings to true.

Various type of zooming

Zooming can be performed in following types:

Zooming toolbar

By default, the toolbar is rendered with zoom-in, zoom-out, and reset options when it is set to ‘true’ in the enable property of zoomSettings. You can also customize the toolbar items using the toolBArs property in zoomSettings.

The following options are available in toolbar, and you can use the options as needed:

Zoom - Provides rectangular zoom support.
ZoomIn - Zooms in the maps.
ZoomOut - Zooms out the maps.
Pan - Switches to panning if rectangular zoom is activated.
Reset - Restores the maps to the default view.

Refer to the API links for zooming.

Selection

Each shape in a map can be selected and deselected while interacting with the shapes.

The selectionSettings.fill property is used to change the selected layer shape’s color. The selectionSettings.border.color and selectionSettings.border.width properties are used to customize the selected shape’s border.

You can select a shape by tapping the shape. The single selection is enabled by using the selectionSettings.enable property of shape layer. When the selectionSettings.enable is set to false, the shapes cannot be selected.

Refer to the API and code snippet for selection.

Tooltip is used to show more information about a layer, bubble or marker on mouse over or touch end event performing.

Tooltip can be enabled separately for layer, bubble or marker by setting the tooltipSettings.visible to true. Tooltip’s valuePath value needs to be set to display the dataSource, which field is tooltip text.

The following code snippet illustrates the tooltip that is enabled for layer to show shape data name field.
