Interface IFloatingLabels<T>

Add a floating label to a single polygon or node. When labelling a polygon, all entrance nodes of that polygon receive a label.

// Label the apple store with the label "Apple Store"
const location = mapView.venue.locations.find((l) => l.name === "Apple")!;
mapView.FloatingLabels.add(location.nodes[0], "Apple Store");
Copy

Add a floating label to one entrance node of each polygons associated with all locations on the venue. The text is automatically determined based on location data.

// Draw red labels with black outlines on an entrance node of all polygons with a location
mapView.FloatingLabels.labelAllLocations({
    appearance: {
        text: {
            foregroundColor: 'red',
            backgroundColor: 'black',
        }
    }
});
Copy

Remove a floating label from a single polygon or node.

mapView.FloatingLabels.add(polygon, "Label");

...

// Remove the label currently on this polygon's first entrance
mapView.FloatingLabels.remove(polygon.entrances[0]);
Copy

Remove all floating labels from the venue.

mapView.FloatingLabels.add(polygon, "Label 1");
mapView.FloatingLabels.add(node, "Label 2");

...

// Remove all labels from all polygons
mapView.FloatingLabels.removeAll();
Copy

Resets the priority of an existing floating label (or labels, in the case of a polygon)

mapView.FloatingLabels.setPriority(polygon0, 0);
mapView.FloatingLabels.setPriority(polygon1, 1);

...

// Labels should now behave as they did by default
mapView.FloatingLabels.resetPriority();
Copy

Update the appearance attributes of an already-existing label. If the provided polygon or node does not have a label already, this is a no-op.

mapView.FloatingLabels.setAppearance(node, {
    text: {
        size: 25,
    }
});
Copy

Updates the priority of an existing floating label (or labels, in the case of a polygon). This controls whether it is preferred over other labels during collisions.

// Polygon 1's label should always show above polygon 2's label
mapView.FloatingLabels.setPriority(polygon0, 0);
mapView.FloatingLabels.setPriority(polygon1, 1);
