Map doesn't appear

[paulo]

Hello,

I'm trying to load the attached shape file to sfMaps but nothing is displayed.

I'm doing as https://help.syncfusion.com/xamarin/maps/getting-started

Added files to each platform project and I'm trying to display the shape file gadm36_IRL_0.shp.

If the problem is the shape file, could you direct me to a good resource?

Best regards

Hi Paulo, 

 

Greetings from Syncfusion. 

 

We checked the reported issue with our UG getting started sample along with the shape files you provided, and it worked fine. We suspected that you might not have proper build option for used shape files as like in below  

 

Project	Build option
Android	Android Asset
iOS	Bundle Resource
UWP	Embedded Resource

 

 

To renderer the Maps, shp and dbf files are alone needed as per in below screenshot and find the modified sample in below

Please let us know if you need any further assistance.

Hello, it worked, thank you.

However I noticed my screen gets frozen for about 1 sec until the map is loaded. Would you have any 'good practices' instructions to work with sfMap?

Also, sfMap could load the file async way and expose a property 'IsBusy' so we could create a better user experience...

I will try some workarounds here to minimize impact of this frozen loading second. But any help from you is very welcome.

Hi Paulo, 

 

We have analyzed the reported query and finding any other possibility to achieve your requirement. But no possibility, by setting any busyness loaded view on the maps and notify its indication until loading of provided shape files using SfBusyIndicator and its IsBusy property.
