I use removeAnnotations
to remove my annotations from mapView
but same it remove user location ann. How can I prevent this, or how to get user ann back to view?
NSArray *annotationsOnMap = mapView.annotations;
[mapView removeAnnotations:annotationsOnMap];
Solución
Update:
When I tried with the iOS 9 SDK the user annotation is no longer removed. You can simply use
mapView.removeAnnotations(mapView.annotations)
Historical answer (for apps that run on iOS before iOS 9):
Try this:
NSMutableArray * annotationsToRemove = [ mapView.annotations mutableCopy ] ;
[ annotationsToRemove removeObject:mapView.userLocation ] ;
[ mapView removeAnnotations:annotationsToRemove ] ;
EDIT: Swift version
let annotationsToRemove = mapView.annotations.filter { $0 !== mapView.userLocation }
mapView.removeAnnotations( annotationsToRemove )
Otros consejos
To clear all the annotations from the map:
[self.mapView removeAnnotations:[self.mapView annotations]];
To remove specified annotations from Mapview
for (id <MKAnnotation> annotation in self.mapView.annotations)
{
if (![annotation isKindOfClass:[MKUserLocation class]])
{
[self.mapView removeAnnotation:annotation];
}
}
Hope this may help you.
For Swift you can simply use a one-liner:
mapView.removeAnnotations(mapView.annotations)
Edit: As nielsbot mentioned it will also remove the user's location annotation unless you have set it up like this:
mapView.showsUserLocation = true
If your user location is kind of class of MKUserLocation
, use isKindOfClass
to avoid removing user location annotation.
if (![annotation isKindOfClass:[MKUserLocation class]]) {
}
Else you can set a flag to recognize the kind of your annotations in – mapView:viewForAnnotation:
.
Swift 4.2 or later
Add this line before adding the annotations
mapView.removeAnnotations(mapView.annotations.filter { $0 !== mapView.userLocation })
How about some NSPredicate
filter?
NSPredicate *predicate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"className != %@", NSStringFromClass(MKUserLocation.class)];
NSArray *nonUserAnnotations = [self.mapView.annotations filteredArrayUsingPredicate:predicate];
[self.mapView removeAnnotations:nonUserAnnotations];
Life is always better with NSPredicate filter
In Swift 4.1:
Normally if you don't want to remove your MKUserLocation annotation you can simply run:
self.mapView.removeAnnotations(self.annotations)
.
This method by default does not remove the MKUserLocation annotation from the annotations
list.
However if you need to filter out all annotations except the MKUserLocation (see annotationsNoUserLocation
variable below) for any other reason, like centering on all the annotations but the MKUserLocation annotation you can use this simple extension below.
extension MKMapView {
var annotationsNoUserLocation : [MKAnnotation] {
get {
return self.annotations.filter{ !($0 is MKUserLocation) }
}
}
func showAllAnnotations() {
self.showAnnotations(self.annotations, animated: true)
}
func removeAllAnnotations() {
self.removeAnnotations(self.annotations)
}
func showAllAnnotationsNoUserLocation() {
self.showAnnotations(self.annotationsNoUserLocation, animated: true)
}
}
Hi try this i got the solution from this code:
NSMutableArray*listRemoveAnnotations = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
[Mapview removeAnnotations:listRemoveAnnotations];
[listRemoveAnnotations release];
