Center a map marker in Android

Question

I use the following code to display a single marker at a zoom level but it doesn't center tha marker on the map. Only one marker will ever be shown:

LatLng latLng = new LatLng(Latitude, Longitude);
cameraUpdate = CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(latLng, 11.0f);

This code will center it but it doesn't provide any zoom:

LatLngBounds bounds = latLngBuilder.build();
cameraUpdate = CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngBounds(bounds, 30);

I need to center AND zoom.

Answer 1

this is because you need to move you camera to the CameraUpdateFactory you created, like this:

LatLng latLng = new LatLng(Latitude, Longitude);
map.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLng(latLng, 11);

if you don't want the animation, then you could just use:

map.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLng(latLng, 11);
