Removing custom pins with Map API

[cvp]

@RocketBlaster05 sorry, but I don't understand.
At each long press, you want to add a new pin
Thus, how to specify that you want to remove a pin?

[cvp]

@RocketBlaster05 with this, no remove

def long_press_action(sender):
	# Add a pin when the MapView recognizes a long-press
	c = sender.point_to_coordinate(sender.long_press_location)
	# this of only to special process asked in forum
	# https://forum.omz-software.com/topic/7077/removing-custom-pins-with-map-api
	if 1==0:#len(sender.mk_map_view.annotations()) == 1:
		sender.remove_all_pins()
	else:
		sender.add_pin(c[0], c[1], 'Dropped Pin', str(c), select=True)
	sender.set_center_coordinate(c[0], c[1], animated=True)

@cvp Yes I want to add and remove "Dropped Pin"s only

[cvp]

@RocketBlaster05 thus a long press adds an additional pin.
Which gesture should remove the last one?

[RocketBlaster05]

@cvp whenever a new pin is added, the only pins that should be removed are any pins named "Dropped Pin." It gets removed once a new pin is added.

@RocketBlaster05 I think that I'm not very skilled in English but I don't understnd.
In this script, all pins are named "dropped", except the first one.

[RocketBlaster05]

@cvp yes what you wrote below is correct

[cvp]

I think that I begin to understand.
Your code has placed 11 pins and you want that a long press only deletes the pin named dropped.
Is that correct?

[RocketBlaster05]

@cvp yes that is correct

[cvp]

@RocketBlaster05 sorry for the misunderstanding

def long_press_action(sender):
	# Add a pin when the MapView recognizes a long-press
	c = sender.point_to_coordinate(sender.long_press_location)
	# this of only to special process asked in forum
	# https://forum.omz-software.com/topic/7077/removing-custom-pins-with-map-api
	for annotation in sender.mk_map_view.annotations():
		if str(annotation.title()) == 'Dropped Pin':
			sender.mk_map_view.removeAnnotation_(annotation)
	else:
		sender.add_pin(c[0], c[1], 'Dropped Pin', str(c), select=True)
	sender.set_center_coordinate(c[0], c[1], animated=True)

[RocketBlaster05]

@cvp works like a charm!

[cvp]

@RocketBlaster05 ouf. Sorry to have been so slow to understand

[RocketBlaster05]

@cvp school's been rough lately lol. Teacher is asking I make more modifications to the map we were talking about so that I can collect some data... I have a simple ui.load_view() I plan to make later which will ask the user if they want to mark their current location on the map. However I would need a button to be pressed for the user to get the view to work. Also, the user would need to be able to do so as many times as they like, so that multiple marks can appear on the map. The positions of the markers would need to be saved so that the next time the map is activated, the markers will reappear. I understand this is likely a fair amount of code, but any help would be greatly appreciated. I will not be able to test the code for a few hours because my iPad is at home and I am at school. If you could suggest any ideas for me to test later I would be very thankful.
