Gets the MapCamera settings that define the current position of the camera.

public : MapCamera ActualCamera { get; }public MapCamera ActualCamera { get; }Public ReadOnly Property ActualCamera As MapCamera// This API is not available in Javascript.

Remarks

During an animation of the map, the ActualCamera defines the current position of the map's camera and TargetCamera defines the final position of the camera.

The map's camera settings are updated whenever the view of the map is changed. For example, when updating the Center property or calling the TrySetSceneAsync method.

Gets or sets a point to which the logical center of the map is transformed.

public : Point TransformOrigin { get; set; }public Point TransformOrigin { get; set; }Public ReadWrite Property TransformOrigin As Point// This API is not available in Javascript.

Remarks

The TransformOrigin represents a point around which the map rotates – for example, when the user manipulates the map, or when you change the value of the Heading property. Consider setting the Y value of the TransformOrigin to a value greater than 0.5 when the map is tilted - that is, when the Pitch is greater than 0. This moves the logical center closer to the user - that is, closer to the bottom of the screen - and shows the user more of what’s in the distance when the map is rotated.

After you set the value of the TransformOrigin property for the MapControl, the Center property continues to return the previous center until you set the Center to the same value as the TransformOrigin.

public : void StartContinuousRotate(double rateInDegreesPerSecond)public void StartContinuousRotate(Double rateInDegreesPerSecond)Public Function StartContinuousRotate(rateInDegreesPerSecond As Double) As void// This API is not available in Javascript.

Remarks

Heading values greater than 360 degrees are normalized to their equivalent 0-360 degree value.

Starts an asynchronous operation to tilt the map's camera continuously from its current position.

public : void StartContinuousTilt(double rateInDegreesPerSecond)public void StartContinuousTilt(Double rateInDegreesPerSecond)Public Function StartContinuousTilt(rateInDegreesPerSecond As Double) As void// This API is not available in Javascript.

Remarks

Starts an asynchronous operation to zoom in continuously until the map's maximum ZoomLevel is reached.

public : void StartContinuousZoom(double rateOfChangePerSecond)public void StartContinuousZoom(Double rateOfChangePerSecond)Public Function StartContinuousZoom(rateOfChangePerSecond As Double) As void// This API is not available in Javascript.

Remarks

The maximum and minimum values of ZoomLevel depend on the type of map view: 2D, 3D, or Streetside.

When leaving a Streetside view, the map returns to the previous view settings. The Streetside ZoomLevel is not maintained outside of the Streetside experience.
