Polylines can't be remove on the map
I am working on an Android app that uses the Google Maps Android API, and I'm having trouble clearing polylines from the map. I have implemented the addition of polylines within a dialog, and I want to remove the currently displayed polyline when the "Clear" button is pressed. However, the polyline is not being removed as expected.
Problem Description:
I have a dialog that displays a Google Map with a polyline when a specific route is selected. Here is an overview of the code structure:
I create and display a dialog with the selected route's polyline on the map. I have a "Clear" button (clearRouteBtn) within the dialog, which should remove the displayed polyline from the map. The polylines I am using
Issue:
The problem is that when I click the "Clear" button, it doesn't remove the polyline from the map, even though I am using PolylineView.remove();. The log message indicates that the polyline is removed, but it remains visible on the map.
What I've Tried:
I tried adding log messages to verify that PolylineView is not null. I also ensured that the button's click listener is properly set. Expected Behavior:
When I click the "Clear" button, I expect the currently displayed polyline to be removed from the map.
Actual Behavior:
The polyline is not removed from the map when clicking the "Clear" button.
Additional Information:
The app uses the Google Maps Android API. The polyline is added using PolylineView = mMap.addPolyline(polylineOptions);. The visibility of the "Clear" button is initially set to INVISIBLE
Any suggestions or insights on how to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated.
public Polyline currentPolyline;
public Polyline PolylineView;
This is where the second polylines is located and my clear button
Button buttonOkay = dialogView.findViewById(R.id.button);
buttonOkay.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

"I solved the problem by adding an ArrayList for the polylines. This allows me to store each newly added line in the ArrayList, and I set the PolylineView to null after clearing the lines. I also moved the clear button outside the for loop to prevent unexpected behaviors."
