WPF: We will add ExportToImage public method for WPF in R1 2017 with option whether to include map objects from Information/VisualizationLayer.

One partial solution if you use Bing Maps in RadMap is to use the Bing REST Static Map Imagery in order to download Image replicating the current viewport and zoomlevel of the RadMap.

Available in R1 2017 Official Release Version.

Add public GetCoercedLocationRect method to support the existing GetCoercedLocation.

This is crucial in WrapAround + Virtualization scenarios because 180 longitude location is generally considered in the rande [-180;180] but Region with west-east Longitudes like [180-240] should be coerced to [-180; -120].

When WrapAround is set to TRUE, the MapItemsRequest does not fire when you pan endlessly in one direction.

The Location.Parse() method throws FormatException when the source string is saved (using the Location's object ToString() method) and the culture of the application is set to de-DE. 

Note:  The issue can appear with different cultures that use ',' as number decimal separator.

To work this around you can save or parse the Location manually instead of using ToString() and Parse().

Is there a way to get the map to continuously scroll without seeing the gray area? As an example, GoogleMaps, MapQuest, etc.. let you scroll left to right without getting to the "end of the world", it just continues to wrap around. I'm trying to avoid seeing the gray when I scroll too far left or right.

The feature for WPF will be available with R3 2016 in September.

MapPath with RotateTransform is added in InformationLayer runtime. Map produces NullReferenceException.

As a workaround you can use Visualizationlayer and PathData.

An exception is thrown in the following scenario:
-We have a data bound VisualizationLayer with MapShapeBindableWrapper elements in its ItemTemplate.
-The view models in the ItemsSource of the layer implements the INotifyLocationChanged interface and its LocationChanged event is manually raised when the Location property is changed
-If the layer's ItemsSource collection is reset and then the Location property the elements of the old collection is changed, an exception is thrown.


The fix will be available in our official release Q1 2016 SP.

RadMap's VisualizationLayer with ClusterGenerator. The default value of AutoExpandWhenSingle is used - TRUE. When removing items from the cluster at runtime, it does not auto expand when only one item is contained in the cluster.

The fix will be available in the internal build from 9.November 2015 as well as in the Q1 2016 official Release.

Map with ItemsSource bound to collection is hosted in RadPane . By closing the pane or by using LoadLayout() of RadPane - NulReferenceException is thrown.

Available in LIB version: 2015.1.1603

When using MapArcSementView , setting SweepDirection="ClockWise" does not work. The arc is always CounterClockWise.

Currently only Mercator projection is supported. We should add support for other projections. Shape file reader should be able process .prj file and setup correspondent projection to the EmptyProvider. The Bing and OpenStreet map providers show map using Mercator projection, so they can't use any other projections to show map shapes (KML or ESRI).

When the selection is started on map control then it can be cancelled using the Escape key.

When the PathData contains Arc segment which looks as vertical half-circle then it is not displayed in VisualizationLayer.
