    You are probably using Xamarin.Maps that use native maps, Google Maps on Android and Apple Maps on iOS, I assume. In Windows there's no native map, so you would need some third party library. I would recommend Mapsui

  • .NET Maui and MAPSUI Help - Clearing Callouts when another is clicked
    1 project | /r/dotnetMAUI | 10 Nov 2022
    Looking through their getting started page and their examples on Github (specifically: SingleCalloutSample) I was able to get my list of places to show up on the map and when clicked display certain features.This has led to me only being able to toggle whether the callout is displayed or not. What I am hoping to figure out is how to disable all other callouts once another location is selected, so that only a single callout is displayed at a time.
