Pushpin by speed

[Martin Hofgesang]

Hello everybody,

I got trouble changing the pushpin color on the speed.

The FAQ says there is a change necessary at in jmaps.js in the "evHeadingMarkerURL" but there are many functions starting with evHeadingMarkerURL and neither of them changes anything.

I managed to change my Pushpins by modification of the function "evHeadingGreenURL" as described below, but I am wondering what the preferred way of the developer is.

Does anyone have an idea?

/**
*** Pushpin: 
*** Returns a 'green' pushpin/icon URL based on the event heading
*** @param e  The 'MapEventRecord' object
**/
function evHeadingGreenURL(e)
{
    var ppImg = "images/pp/pin30"; // "extra/images/pp/circle"
    if ((MAX_CREATION_AGE_SEC > 0) && (e.createAge > MAX_CREATION_AGE_SEC)) {
        if (e.speedKPH < 1.0) {
            return ppImg + "_black.png";
        } else {
            var x = Math.round(e.heading / 45.0) % 8;
            return ppImg + "_black_h"+x+".png";
        }
    } else
    if (e.speedKPH < 1.0) {
        // probably not moving
        return ppImg + "_green_dot.png";
    } else 
    if (e.speedKPH < 60.0) {
        var x = Math.round(e.heading / 45.0) % 8;
        return ppImg + "_yellow_h"+x+".png";
    } else 
    if (e.speedKPH < 130.0) {
        var x = Math.round(e.heading / 45.0) % 8;
        return ppImg + "_green_h"+x+".png";
    } else {
        var x = Math.round(e.heading / 45.0) % 8;
        return ppImg + "_black_h"+x+".png";
    }
};

Hi,
if I well emember it's possible to define new Icons in Private.XML

<pushpins baseurl="custom/images/pp/">
<pushpin iconoffset="9,30" shadowsize="30,30" iconsize="60,60" key="new_stop" shadow="" icon="new_stop.png">
<pushpin iconoffset="9,30" shadowsize="30,30" iconsize="30,30" key="new_start" shadow="" icon="new_start.png">
</pushpin></pushpin></pushpins>

and the function to manipulate view conditions inside the same private.xml

    <IconSelector type="device" ruleFactoryName="GTSRulesEngine"><![CDATA[
        ((mph<5)?"stop":(mph<20)?"yellowh":"greenh")
        ]]></IconSelector>

I'm not sure if the function works only on the GTS Enterprise......

Read remarks in the Private.xml file
