Remarks

Note

In the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update, we recommend that you add MapElement objects to a MapElementsLayer instead of adding them to the MapElements collection.

Display pushpins, images, and shapes on the MapControl by adding them to its MapElements collection.

• Display an image such as a pushpin with optional text by using the MapIcon class. Keep the default image or provide a custom image.
• Define and display a MapPolygon or a MapPolyline. Alternately, to display XAML elements on the MapControl, add them to its Children collection.

For more info, see Display maps with 2D, 3D, and Streetside views.
