MapShapeTooltipBehavior

Represents a MapBehavior that provides a context-sensitive information on a per map shape basis. Applicable when MapShapeLayer instances are added to the RadMap. The MapShapeToolTipBehavior exposes the following properties:

The MapShapeTooltipBehavior class inherits from the MapBehavior class - See the inherited properties.

  • TouchOverhang (Point): Gets or sets the offset to be applied when the tooltip position is calculated.
  • ShowDelay (TimeSpan): Gets or sets the delay to be applied before the tooltip is displayed.
  • IsOpen (bool): Gets a value indicating whether the tooltip is currently displayed.

Default ToolTip

Here is an example that demonstrates how to add a MapShapeToolTipBehavior to the RadMap control.

You have to set the ShapeLabelAttributeName property of the layer to which you would like to add a tooltip.

<telerikMap:RadMap>
    <telerikMap:RadMap.Layers>
        <telerikMap:MapShapeLayer ShapeToolTipAttributeName="ADMIN_NAME">
            <telerikMap:MapShapeLayer.Source>
                <telerikMap:ShapefileDataSource SourceUriString="ms-appx:///Data/global.shp" DataSourceUriString="ms-appx:///Data/global.dbf"/>
            </telerikMap:MapShapeLayer.Source>
            <telerikMap:MapShapeLayer.ShapeColorizer>
                <telerikMap:DesaturationColorizer BaseColor="#FFBD2E" AttributeName="SQKM_ADMIN" From="1" To="0" RangeCount="10">
                    <telerikMap:DesaturationColorizer.RangeDistribution>
                        <telerikMap:LogarithmicRangeDistribution/>
                    </telerikMap:DesaturationColorizer.RangeDistribution>
                </telerikMap:DesaturationColorizer>
            </telerikMap:MapShapeLayer.ShapeColorizer>
        </telerikMap:MapShapeLayer>
    </telerikMap:RadMap.Layers>
    <telerikMap:RadMap.Behaviors>
        <telerikMap:MapShapeToolTipBehavior/>
        <telerikMap:MapShapeSelectionBehavior/>
    </telerikMap:RadMap.Behaviors>
</telerikMap:RadMap>

Customizing the ToolTip Content

The content of the tooltip could be customized using the MapShapeToolTipBehavior.ContentTemplate attached property to the MapShapeLayer. Here is an example:

<telerikMap:RadMap Background="#2EC4FF">
    <telerikMap:RadMap.Layers>
        <telerikMap:MapShapeLayer>

            <telerikMap:MapShapeToolTipBehavior.ContentTemplate>
                <DataTemplate>
                    <TextBlock>
                        <Run Text="{Binding Shape.Attributes[SQKM_ADMIN]}"/>
                        <Run Text="km"/>
                    </TextBlock>
                </DataTemplate>
            </telerikMap:MapShapeToolTipBehavior.ContentTemplate>

            <telerikMap:MapShapeLayer.Source>
                <telerikMap:ShapefileDataSource SourceUriString="ms-appx:///Data/global.shp" DataSourceUriString="ms-appx:///Data/global.dbf"/>
            </telerikMap:MapShapeLayer.Source>
            <telerikMap:MapShapeLayer.ShapeColorizer>
                <telerikMap:DesaturationColorizer BaseColor="#FFBD2E" AttributeName="SQKM_ADMIN" From="1" To="0" RangeCount="10">
                    <telerikMap:DesaturationColorizer.RangeDistribution>
                        <telerikMap:LogarithmicRangeDistribution/>
                    </telerikMap:DesaturationColorizer.RangeDistribution>
                </telerikMap:DesaturationColorizer>
            </telerikMap:MapShapeLayer.ShapeColorizer>
        </telerikMap:MapShapeLayer>
    </telerikMap:RadMap.Layers>
    <telerikMap:RadMap.Behaviors>
        <telerikMap:MapShapeToolTipBehavior/>
        <telerikMap:MapShapeSelectionBehavior/>
    </telerikMap:RadMap.Behaviors>
</telerikMap:RadMap>

Customizing the ToolTip Container

The container of the tooltip could be customised with implicit Style that targets the MapTooltip class defined in the Telerik.UI.Xaml.Controls.Map.Primitives namespace. Here is an example:

<telerikMap:RadMap>
    <telerikMap:RadMap.Resources>
        <Style TargetType="telerikMapPrimitives:MapToolTip">
            <Setter Property="Template">
                <Setter.Value>
                    <ControlTemplate TargetType="telerikMapPrimitives:MapToolTip">
                        <Grid>
                            <Ellipse Fill="Black"/>
                            <ContentPresenter Content="{TemplateBinding Content}" Margin="10"
                                              ContentTemplate="{TemplateBinding ContentTemplate}"/>
                        </Grid>
                    </ControlTemplate>
                </Setter.Value>
            </Setter>
        </Style>
    </telerikMap:RadMap.Resources>

    <telerikMap:RadMap.Layers>
        <telerikMap:MapShapeLayer ShapeLabelAttributeName="ADMIN_NAME" IsToolTipEnabled="True" ShapeToolTipAttributeName="SQKM_ADMIN">
            <telerikMap:MapShapeLayer.Source>
                <telerikMap:ShapefileDataSource SourceUriString="ms-appx:///Data/global.shp" DataSourceUriString="ms-appx:///Data/global.dbf"/>
            </telerikMap:MapShapeLayer.Source>
        </telerikMap:MapShapeLayer>
    </telerikMap:RadMap.Layers>
    <telerikMap:RadMap.Behaviors>
        <telerikMap:MapShapeToolTipBehavior/>
        <telerikMap:MapShapeSelectionBehavior/>
    </telerikMap:RadMap.Behaviors>
</telerikMap:RadMap>

This is the result:
