Show a callout with formatted content for a KML feature.
Use case
A user may wish to select a KML feature to view relevant information about it.
How to use the sampleClick a feature to identify it. Feature information will be displayed in a callout.
Note: the KML layer used in this sample contains a screen overlay. The screen overlay contains a legend and the logos for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the National Weather Service (NWS). You can't identify the screen overlay.
How it worksMouseClicked

, screen point and tolerance.KmlPlacemark
from the result.BalloonContent
. NOTE: KML supports defining HTML for balloon content and may need to be converted from HTML to text.Note: There are several types of KML features. This sample only identifies features of type KmlPlacemark
.
This sample shows a forecast for significant weather within the U.S. Regions of severe thunderstorms, flooding, snowfall, and freezing rain are shown. Tap the features to see details.
Additional informationKML features can have rich HTML content, including images.
