Search for: KB10382 - Using an animation layer in the DK. The DK offers a map layer on which you can place objects (points) which can be moved around under program control with no screen refreshes. We refer to this as an in-memory layer (TGIS_LayerVector). Every shape in an in-memory layer is editable. The DK can write data to in-memory layers extremely fast. Follow this procedure: Screen caching turned on Cashing for the layer(s) holding the floating (moving) points turned off The layer(s) containing the moving points must be the top most layers. Be careful that your map project file does not override the viewer settings. Refer to the DK In-Memory sample (located in DK sample set #1) for guidance. In-memory layer is particularly useful for situations requiring dynamic map updates, such as with multi-vehicle GPS tracking. Created: December 17, 2004, Modified: August 05, 2015
