How to get image in infoWindow on Google Maps with picasso - Android

Question

I have created an app that implements a MapsView. And when i click the marker, it will show me the info window where the data is retrieved from the database by using picasso. It works fine, but the problem is that the image in the info window not shows me the image that i needed, it still shows me the placeholder image. But when i click the map and click again to the marker, it will shows me the image that i needed. But if i'm not clicking on the map (still clicking the marker), it still always shows me the placeholder marker. How do I display the image that i needed (the placeholder image will replace with the image that i needed) with a time?

Here's my code

public void plotMarkers(ArrayList<MyMarker> markers) {
    if(markers.size() > 0) {
        for (MyMarker myMarker : markers)
        {
            dest = new LatLng(myMarker.getmLatitude(), myMarker.getmLongitude());
            markerOption = new MarkerOptions().position(dest);
            location_marker = mMap.addMarker(markerOption);
            Target target = new PicassoMarker(location_marker);
            targets.add(target);

            ImageView image = new ImageView(this);
            image.setImageResource(R.mipmap.marker);
            int width = image.getDrawable().getIntrinsicWidth();
            int height = image.getDrawable().getIntrinsicHeight();

            Picasso.with(MapsActivity.this).load(myMarker.getmIcon()).resize(width, height).onlyScaleDown().into(target);
            mMarkersHashMap.put(location_marker, myMarker);

            i = getIntent();
            if(i.getBooleanExtra("maps", true)) {
                location_marker.setTitle(i.getStringExtra("nama"));
                mMap.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(dest, 16));
            }
            else {
                mMap.setInfoWindowAdapter(new MarkerInfoWindowAdapter());
            }
        }
    }
}

public class MarkerInfoWindowAdapter implements GoogleMap.InfoWindowAdapter
{
    @Override
    public View getInfoWindow(Marker marker) {
        return null;
    }

    @Override
    public View getInfoContents(Marker marker) {
        View v  = getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.info_windowlayout, null);

        MyMarker myMarker = mMarkersHashMap.get(marker);

        TextView markerLabel = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.marker_label);
        markerLabel.setText(myMarker.getmLabel());

        ImageView foto = (ImageView) v.findViewById(R.id.foto);
        Picasso.with(getApplicationContext()).load(myMarker.getmImage()).placeholder(R.layout.progress).error(R.mipmap.error).into(foto);

        TextView anotherLabel = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.another_label);
        anotherLabel.setText("Baca selengkapnya...");

        return v;
    }
}

Answer 1

The info window is basically a bitmap, captured from the views that you populated. As a result, changes to those views — such as Picasso asynchronously updating an ImageView — will not update the info window.

One solution that works is to call showInfoWindow() on the Marker after Picasso has obtained and cached the image. For example, this sample app uses Picasso to populate info windows, and uses a Picasso Callback to call showInfoWindow() :

    @Override
    public void onSuccess() {
      if (marker != null && marker.isInfoWindowShown()) {
        marker.showInfoWindow();
      }
    }
  }
}

Basically, if when Picasso gets the image, the info window is still open for the associated Marker , I call showInfoWindow() . The visual effect resembles normal Picasso behavior: a placeholder, followed by the real image replacing the placeholder.

kotlin version

   Picasso.get()
            .load(it.avatar)
            .placeholder(R.drawable.ic_person_black_24dp)
            .error(R.drawable.ic_person_black_24dp)
            .into(avatarView, object : Callback {
                override fun onSuccess() {
                    if (marker != null && marker.isInfoWindowShown) {
                        marker.hideInfoWindow()
                        marker.showInfoWindow()
                    }
                }

                override fun onError(e: Exception?) {
                    Timber.e("Error loading avatar to info window!")
                }
            })
