Can I draw circles with Geotrace?

Question

Hello all,

I have a use case that geometry needs to be represented as circles (new data collection). I just checked the sample form, but it does not look like supporting drawing circles. Is there any work around?

Cheers,

Kerry

Hi KerryKang

I saw that your message was from a few years ago, but now I have to do exactly what you asked then.

Have you found a solution?

thanks carla

Hello Shwu-Jing, thank you for the information. Is it possible to do that with 'Geoshape' instead of Geotrace? I hope to get the circle shape as polygon features. Also I was wondering if I can draw a circle by passing x, y, diameter values (maybe using concat?), not asking user to draw it on the map directly.

Cheers,

Kerry

Hi Kerry,

Yes, you could specify the method=sketch and use smart shape option to draw a circle:

Here is the online doc explaining the details:
