Direction.View Property

Direction.View Property

The map views (MapViewRepresentations object) for the specified direction. Includes a view defined by bounding rectangle and a view defined by center point, height, and width.

Public Dim View As [Namespace].MapViewRepresentations
    Member of [Namespace].Direction

[C#]

public [Namespace].MapViewRepresentations View
    Member of [Namespace].Direction

Remarks

• The View property is returned only when the SegmentOptions.CalculateDirectionMapView property is set to True.

• The View property does not contain a view defined by center point and scale.

Example

[Visual Basic]

'Calculate a route and use the directions views to 
'get a map for each instruction (turn-by-turn maps)
