Marker

Definition

The Marker component indicates points on a Map, such as buildings or other points of interest. Markers can be customized in many ways, such as using custom images from the app’s assets or by changing the Marker FillColor. Markers can also be created dynamically by calling the Map’s CreateMarker method and configured using the “Any Component” blocks.
