Gets or sets the map item’s rotation angle in radians.

Assembly : DevExpress.XtraMap.v25.2.dll

Declaration

C#
VB.NET

csharp

[DefaultValue(0)]
public double Angle { get; set; }

<DefaultValue(0)>
Public Property Angle As Double

Property Value

Type	Default	Description
Double	0

An angle in radians.

Remarks

The angle is measured starting from a vertical line clockwise. The MapPointer.Location property value is used as a center point for transformation.

Example

The following example shows how to customize the map pushpin appearance.

Use the MapPointer.SvgImage property to specify the pushpin glyph. To define its size, use the MapPointer.SvgImageSize property.
To apply a specific color depending on the item state (“Selected”, “Highlighted”, “Normal”), use the MapPointer.SvgPaletteProvider property.
Set the Angle property to rotate the pushpin.
