Code summary

This example shows how to modify the dissolved route line style in the Theme.CustomNavDissolvedRouteline style. This style inherits from the NavigationViewLight style and sets the navViewRouteStyle property to the CustomNavDissolvedRouteLineStyle style. The CustomNavDissolvedRouteLineStyle style inherits from the NavigationMapRoute style and sets the following properties:

  • alternativeRouteScale: This property specifies the width of the dissolved route line as a multiple of the width of the normal route line.

  • navigationDissolvedRouteColor: This property specifies the color of the dissolved route line.

  • navigationDissolvedAnimatedRouteColor: This property specifies the color of the animation effect that is applied to the dissolved route line.

To use the Theme.CustomNavDissolvedRouteline style, you need to set the lightThemeResId property of the NavLauncherConfig object to the resource ID of the Theme.CustomNavDissolvedRouteline style. For example, the following code shows how to set the lightThemeResId property:

1
NavLauncherConfig.Builder configBuilder = NavLauncherConfig.builder(directionsRoute);
2
configBuilder.locationLayerRenderMode(RenderMode.GPS);
3
configBuilder.shouldSimulateRoute(true);
4
// Set dissolved rout line styling by lightThemeResId resource
5
configBuilder.lightThemeResId(R.style.Theme_CustomNavDissolvedRouteline);
6
NavigationLauncher.startNavigation(CustomDissolvedLineStyleActivity.this, configBuilder.build());
