how to update marker location in mapviews

Hi

i have a case where i’m loading a mapview and adding markers

i also want my position to update as i move

i did it by setting a timer function to remove marker and add it again, also setting the center again with myMap:setCenter

mt problem is that the image icon i’m using for gps location is doing some annoying transition falling from above on the map … first time it shows it looks cool, but when you refresh each 5 or 10 seconds it looks weird and keeps falling … is there a way to make it just move . … similar to Uber Taxi Cabs for example … it doesn’t have to be smooth transition but at least no falling

local function refreshMyLoaction() &nbsp; &nbsp; if result1~=nil then &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; local currentLocation = myMap:getUserLocation() &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; myMap:removeMarker( result1 ) &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; local opt1={ &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; title = "You'r here", &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; subtitle ="", &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; imageFile =&nbsp; "images/gps3.png", &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; } &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; result1, errorMessage1 = myMap:addMarker( currentLocation.latitude, currentLocation.longitude,opt1 ) &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; myMap:setCenter( currentLocation.latitude, currentLocation.longitude ) &nbsp; &nbsp; end &nbsp; &nbsp; timer.performWithDelay(10000,refreshMyLoaction)&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; end refreshMyLoaction()
