Select graphics within a graphics layer

BrandonIves

I am trying to select specific graphics point features that I am adding through code. I can't seem to figure out how to grab the individual graphics withing the graphics layer. Any help is appreciated.

Since you are not using the map's default graphic layer, update the findPointsInExtent function to use the GraphicsLayer you created. Try the following below:

function showResults(results) {                  var len = results.features.length;        var featureSet = new FeatureSet();        featureSet = results;                graphicsLayer = new esri.layers.GraphicsLayer();                 dojo.forEach(featureSet.features, function (feature,index) {                    var spID = featureSet.features[index].attributes.SP_ID;           var address = featureSet.features[index].attributes.ADDRESS;           var callbackstatus = featureSet.features[index].attributes.CALLBACKSTATUS;           var meterNumber = featureSet.features[index].attributes.METERNUMBER;                    feature.geometry = new esri.geometry.Point(featureSet.features[index].attributes.GIS_X, featureSet.features[index].attributes.GIS_Y, new esri.SpatialReference({ wkid: 4326 }));           feature.symbol = defaultSymbol;           graphicsLayer.add(feature);                  });         mapMain.addLayer(graphicsLayer);  }  function findPointsInExtent(extent) {     var graphics = graphicsLayer;      dojo.forEach(graphics.graphics, function (graphic) {                 for (var i = 0, il = graphics.graphics.length; i < il; i++) {                     if (extent.contains(graphic.geometry)) {                 graphic.setSymbol(highlightSymbol);                                  }                 else if (graphic.symbol == highlightSymbol) {             graphic.setSymbol(defaultSymbol);             }         }      })   }

Jake,

Awesome suggestion. I was assuming I would have to search the values by explicitly saying what graphics layer to get to its graphics features. EX: mapMain.graphicsLayer.graphics

I can throw a break point into the for loop and watch it iterate through whether the graphic is in the extent or not but the web page hangs up and never finishes the function. I am trying to trouble shoot that now.

Since you are not using the map's default graphic layer, update the findPointsInExtent function to use the GraphicsLayer you created. Try the following below:

function showResults(results) {                  var len = results.features.length;        var featureSet = new FeatureSet();        featureSet = results;                graphicsLayer = new esri.layers.GraphicsLayer();                 dojo.forEach(featureSet.features, function (feature,index) {                    var spID = featureSet.features[index].attributes.SP_ID;           var address = featureSet.features[index].attributes.ADDRESS;           var callbackstatus = featureSet.features[index].attributes.CALLBACKSTATUS;           var meterNumber = featureSet.features[index].attributes.METERNUMBER;                    feature.geometry = new esri.geometry.Point(featureSet.features[index].attributes.GIS_X, featureSet.features[index].attributes.GIS_Y, new esri.SpatialReference({ wkid: 4326 }));           feature.symbol = defaultSymbol;           graphicsLayer.add(feature);                  });         mapMain.addLayer(graphicsLayer);  }  function findPointsInExtent(extent) {     var graphics = graphicsLayer;      dojo.forEach(graphics.graphics, function (graphic) {                 for (var i = 0, il = graphics.graphics.length; i < il; i++) {                     if (extent.contains(graphic.geometry)) {                 graphic.setSymbol(highlightSymbol);                                  }                 else if (graphic.symbol == highlightSymbol) {             graphic.setSymbol(defaultSymbol);             }         }      })   }

Jake,

Thanks for the reply. I am still curious how to select graphics within a graphics layer because I know I will possibly be adding multiple points features from different sources that I would like to control from a legend or toggle menu to turn the layers off and on. Ex: Items that need inspected this year, next year, etc. I also need to select the individual layers to assign work and complete work.

I will be getting all of my data from an Oracle table without a spatial component so I won't be able to return any geometry because there isn't any. I will have x/y fields to let me plot the point.

Coming from a silverlight background I know I had to create multiple graphics layers, one for each layer. Is there a way to select individual graphics within the graphics layer?

Thanks!

Hi Brandon,

Each map contains a graphics layer by default, so you won't have to create one. The graphics layer is accessible using the Map.Graphics property.

Try the following:

/// <reference path="index.html" />
var mapMain, selectionLayer, graphicsLayer, selectionToolbar, graphic, defaultSymbol, highlightSymbol, resultTemplate;

require([
    "esri/map",
    "esri/geometry/Extent",
    "esri/layers/ArcGISTiledMapServiceLayer",
    "esri/layers/FeatureLayer",
    "esri/tasks/GeometryService",
    "esri/tasks/query",
    "esri/tasks/QueryTask",
    "esri/tasks/FeatureSet",
    "esri/graphic",
    "esri/toolbars/draw",
    "esri/config",
    
    "dojo/ready",
    "dojo/parser",
    "dojo/on",
    "dojo/dom",
    "dojo/_base/array",
    
    "dijit/layout/BorderContainer",
    "dijit/layout/ContentPane"],
function (
    Map, Extent, ArcGISTiledMapServiceLayer, FeatureLayer,
    GeometryService, Query, QueryTask, FeatureSet, graphic, draw, config,
    ready, parser, on, dom, array, BorderContainer, ContentPane
) {

ready(function () {

    // Create the map
    mapMain = new Map("cpCenter")
    var layerURL = "http://gisaprd/ArcGIS/rest/services/BaseMap_ArcReader_Cached/MapServer";
    myLayer = new esri.layers.ArcGISTiledMapServiceLayer(layerURL);
    mapMain.addLayer(myLayer);
    
    dojo.connect(mapMain, "onLoad", initSelectToolbar);
    
    button2 = dom.byId("clearButton");
    on(button2, "click", clearSelection);
    
    var queryTask = new QueryTask("http://gisaprd/ArcGIS/rest/services/SRSOutageTest/MapServer/3");
    
    var query = new Query();
    query.returnGeometry = true;
    query.outFields = ["*"];
    query.where = "GIS_X IS NOT NULL";
    queryTask.execute(query, showResults, errBack);        
        
    defaultSymbol = new esri.symbol.SimpleMarkerSymbol().setColor(new dojo.Color([0, 0, 255]));
    highlightSymbol = new esri.symbol.SimpleMarkerSymbol().setColor(new dojo.Color([255, 0, 0]));
    });

function initSelectToolbar(mapMain) {
    selectionToolbar = new esri.toolbars.Draw(mapMain);
    
    dojo.connect(selectionToolbar, "onDrawEnd", findPointsInExtent);

}

function showResults(featureSet) {  
   dojo.forEach(featureSet.features,function(feature){
          mapMain.graphics.add(feature.setSymbol(defaultSymbol));
        });

}

function findPointsInExtent(extent) {
    var results = [];
    dojo.forEach(mapMain.graphics.graphics,function(graphic){
      if (extent.contains(graphic.geometry)) {
        graphic.setSymbol(highlightSymbol);            
      }      
      else if (graphic.symbol == highlightSymbol) {
        graphic.setSymbol(defaultSymbol);
      }
    });   
}


function errBack(results) {
    alert(results);
}

function clearSelection(){
    selectionToolbar.deactivate();
    dojo.forEach(mapMain.graphics.graphics,function(graphic){    
        graphic.setSymbol(defaultSymbol); 
    });                 
}

});

I also added a function to clear the selection. You can call the button from your HTML using the 'dojo/dom' module, and then execute the 'clearSelection' function:

button2 = dom.byId("clearButton");
on(button2, "click", clearSelection);

Here is the updated HTML:
