How to create a window like the build-in Measure Distance tool.

Question

Hello,

I'ld like to build a tool with the same interaction as the build-in measure distance tool. So when we click on the tool button, a window opens. This window stays on the map area and can be reduced. And when we click on another tool, the window closes.

The Measure Distance tool

Is there a build-in type for this in c# / daml or should I make a tool with a separate prowindow with some parameters to let it be reducable and stays on the map.

Thanks a lot !

Hi,

You can use the "Embeddable control" to accomplish this. The Pro SDK Embeddable Control item template will help get you started with this. This control can be used with a Map Tool. When you activate the map tool, the embeddable control on the map will be visible.

Here is a link with documentation help: https://github.com/Esri/arcgis-pro-sdk/wiki#embeddable-control

Thanks
