Last updated: June 16, 2026 | 1 minute read

Learn how to display paths on the map, customize their appearance, and manage the path collection.

Add paths to the map​

Display Paths by adding them to the MapViewPathCollection. The MapViewPathCollection is an iterable collection with methods like size, add, remove, removeAt, getPathAt, and getPathByName.

mapController.preferences.paths.add(path);

Customize path appearance​

The add method of MapViewPathCollection includes optional parameters for customizing path appearance, such as colorBorder, colorInner, szBorder, and szInner.

Center on a path​

Center the map on a path using the GemMapController.centerOnArea() method with the path's area retrieved from the area getter.

mapController.preferences.paths.add(path);

mapController.centerOnArea(path.area);
Path displayed

Remove paths​

Remove all paths from the map using MapViewPathCollection.clear(). To remove specific paths, use MapViewPathCollection.remove(path) or MapViewPathCollection.removeAt(index).
