| MapPoint 2004 Active-X control: how to "bump" pus I'm building an application that will use MapPoint to plot route efficiency for our delivery trucks. When we have two or more invoices to a certain address, it puts two pushpins on the map, one directly on top of the other. This is what I expected. It's a bit cumbersome for the user to have to click on the pushpin, select which of the underlying invoices to review, then click the pushpin again to bring up the pin's notes in a balloon. Assuming I populate an array of pushpins and their respective locations on the map, is it possible to bump a pushpin a little bit so that it's not directly over the of another one? By bump, I mean change the x and y coordinates on the map just enough so that it doesn't cover the other pin(s). Any ideas?         |

Hi, I think the best you can do is to give both pushpins a littel difference in lat/long so that they are next to each other when zoomed in.

Wilfried, I see that MapPoint.Pushpin doesn't have any properties for latitude or longitude. How does one go about changing the pushpin location's lat/lon coordinates? Thanks again for your help, please bear with me I'm a bit new to MapPoint. Andre Ranieri |

Hi Andre, Correct, but a pushpin has a location object that can be changed. For example this example move a pushpin to a different location if found: Code: private void MovePP(string name, double lat, double lon)
{
Location loc = mp.ActiveMap.GetLocation(lat, lon, 1);
Pushpin pp = mp.ActiveMap.FindPushpin(name);
if (pp == null)
return;
pp.Location = loc;
pp.GoTo();
}
