VertexTool and SimpleMarkerSymbol rescaling when dragging vertices in ArcGIS Maps SDK

julianrua

I am using ArcGIS Maps SDK v200.6.0 (Android and iOS) and I have encountered strange behavior when editing geometries with VertexTool (and also with ReticleVertexTool):

When I select and drag a vertex, its SimpleMarkerSymbol gets bigger when I drop it, and remains with that bigger size. This happens only on the newly moved vertex, as if it were an “indicator” of the SDK.

 

I have tried to:

Use the same size in vertexSymbol and selectedVertexSymbol.

Set allowScalingSelectedElement = false (and in iOS the equivalent).

Am I overlooking any settings?
Is there a property or listener that blocks this spot rescaling on release?

I would appreciate any hints or suggestions on how to keep the vertex size constant before and after dragging.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi julianrua,
This grow effect should occur when you hover a selectable vertex with a device, for example when the ReticleVertexTool is hovered over a vertex; that is before and after you move the vertex. The effect should disappear when you move the reticle away from the vertex. If the vertex remains grown when the device or reticle is not hovered over it then this is a bug. At the moment, it is hard to tell if you have encountered a bug; we have found a bug in this area.

Do you find the grow effect remains on a vertex when the vertex is not hovered? Which type of device were you using with the VertexTool, mouse, stylus/pen or touch?

There is not currently a way to turn off this grow effect. You could lessen the effect by reducing the size of the vertexSymbol; but that is unlikely to be a good solution.
