Altitude parameter

Hello.

I am having some problems with the altitude parameter. I have implemented my own function and I call GeoLocation as follows "var markerLocation = new AR.GeoLocation(latitude, longitude, altitude);". I always give the same value to altitude parameter: 0. What I want is my AR object to be placed in the center, I don't want the user to look up or down to see it.

How can I do this?

Thanks in advance!

Hi there!

In case you want to show information right in front of the user, please use a HTML-div if you want if shown always on screen or AR.RelativeLocation so you can place e.g. a marker 2m to the North of the Users current position.

Kind regards,
Andreas

Hi again,

 

According AR.GeoLocation do not use the altitude value or use the AR.CONST.UNKNOWN_ALTITUDE value to tell ARchitectView that you always want to show it same altitude as the user is.

Kind regards,
Andreas

Thanks Andreas. I want the object to be placed in the same altitude as the user, I mean, I don't want the object to be always visible, I want it to be visible when the user looks at that direction (where the object is). My problem is that I don't know what value should have the "altitude" parameter in the method "AR.GeoLocation(latitude, longitude, altitude);". I have read another message from you where you say that if you don't pass altitude parameter to the method it should work. I am going to try and i will tell you.

Thank you!

 

Perfect! Going to try.

Thank you!!!!

It seems that it's working now! Sometimes it dissapears but it could be due to other error, we are going to study it.

Thank your very much Andreas!
