Is it Possible to Have ArcGIS JS API Measure a New Feature as it's Being Drawn?

GraceTortorici_

Hi all,

Is it possible to integrate the Editor Widget and Measure Widget so that when a new feature is being drawn, the measurements are automatically being displayed? I have not been able to successfully implement this.

Any insights would be appreciated!

Hi @GraceTortorici_ - we added support for tooltipOptions on the Editor widget at version 4.24, which will display area and length measurements in a tooltip when creating or editing a feature. To enable this, follow the code snippet shown below:

const editor = new Editor({
   view: view,
   layerInfos: [pointInfos, lineInfos, polyInfos],
   tooltipOptions: {
      enabled: true
   }
});

¿en qué versión estará disponible?

This is currently a limitation - we are still working on the tooltip functionality and will add the ability to change the units at an upcoming release! Stay tuned.

Hi @AnneFitz, is there a way to change the units from m and km to feet using the tooltip option? I tried using

    linearUnit: "feet",
    areaUnit: "square-feet"

but this was not successful. Unfortunately not finding any documentation on this. Thanks so much!

   tooltipOptions: {
      enabled: true
   }
});
