Hi ,

I have taken the example from your demos and trying to modify as per my requirement. in the Example InformationLayer has HotSpots binding to some Element

Based on a specific type of data i want to change the color of the Element from code behind,

Is it possible?

for example:
below is the XAML code

<telerik:RadMap x:Name="radMap"

Width="600"

Height="480">

<telerik:InformationLayer>

<Ellipse x:Name="Ellipse"

telerik:MapLayer.Location="42.6957539183824, 23.3327663758679"

Width="20"

Height="20"

Stroke="Red"

StrokeThickness="3">

<telerik:MapLayer.HotSpot>

<telerik:HotSpot />

</telerik:MapLayer.HotSpot>

</Ellipse>

</telerik:InformationLayer>

</telerik:RadMap>

Now i want to Access the Ellipse from Codebehind to Change its color, How can I achieve this Please suggest with a working example.

Thanks & Regards,
Bhaskarkiran

Hello Bhaskarkiran,

Just to be sure that we are using same terms for the same things. In RadMap the HotSpot is not a class which represents something visible over the map. It sets position inside the framework element which should be placed to the item location. So you can't colorize HotSpot.

As for the accessing ellipse from the code behind, since your ellipse has x:Name="Ellipse" attribute set then you can do it as simple as following:

this.Ellipse.Fill = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Red);
