kmlSubstyle balloonStyle display support for kmlFile layer placemarks
If I'm correct, kmlSubstyle balloonStyle is currently only parsed but not displayable in WebWorldWind kmlFile layer placemarks. If so, I'd like to suggest the capability to display them as a potential enhancement.
Thank you
@reterraform Hi, Thanks for your interest in WorldWind. Yes, this project is under active development. We are currently working on a new set of enhancements and bug fixes that should show up in this repo in the next month or so. The enhancement you've requested will be reviewed for inclusion in a future release.
@reterraform You are right, at the moment the KmlBalloonStyle is unprocessed, but it should be relatively straightforward to implement it. There are needed tools within the Web World Wind.
I can probably help you if you are interested in implementing the logic?
@balhar-jakub, Yes, any assistance with this would very much appreciated! I feel that, if implemented, it's a feature that will add a lot of value to WebWorldWind.
CHEERS
...or even just an example as a guide might allow me to find my way along; either way, much appreciated!
hello, just checking back to see if there's still any interest in implementing the KmlBalloonStyle functionality;
if not, no worries at all, & thanks in any case!
I was actually looking into it. It seems that this functionality is linked to the controls of the KML. What I can do, is update the KmlTreeControls and when a user clicks on the specific item in the tree if there is a KmlBalloonStyle associated with the feature, it will be displayed on the screen.
Does this works well enough for your use case?
that definitely sounds like it would indeed do the job; greatly appreciate your kind time & effort on this matter!
CHEERS
Hello again, can you direct me to where in the code that kmltree control can be modified? if so, I thought I'd try modifying my copy & see If I can get it to work there..
Thanks again and CHEERS in any case!
I am really sorry, I didn't get to the actual solution. The pandemic lockdowns limits my effectivity more than I thought.
