Getting direction and displaying it on the map
I'm able to get the direction from my gps device.
Now, I want to display my vehicle locations by using arrow (or multiple arows if needed) to show vehicle direction.

Is it possible?

Re: Getting direction and displaying it on the map
Hi,

A possible approach is to make a few bitmaps with arrow in the several directions and add them to the mappoint control. Then you display the right bitmap according the direction of the vehicle.
