Mouse cursor & tooltip with editor

OlivierROSSINI

Hi Flex Team,

Is there a way to customize the tooltip and icon that appears when the mouse is over the map when using a feature template for editing?

When an editing feature template is selected from the feture template picklist, the mouse cursor changes when dragging over the map and displays a tooltip like "Click to start drawing" associated to an icon (the same as the selected feature template icon).
I need to change the text (for localization purpose).
I can't find how to do it.
Is it hardcoded in the swc lib file?
Is it doable? How?

Thanks in advance for your answer.

Regards,

olivier

@damodaranudas, this is a forum specific for the ArcGIS API for Flex, not ArcMap. Are you trying to do this in ArcMap or in a web application developed using the ArcGIS API for Flex?

I'm trying to do this in ArcGIS API For Flex. While I'm using the Draw Tool, I would love the cursor to show the length of the line I'm currently drawing. Is this possible?

Dear ArcMap experts,

   We are digitalizing lots of urban information and we want to see an
   info text box or a tooltip from the mousepointer while drawing.

   We just need to show the length property at the
   side of the mouse pointer.
   The length always appear at the status bar but is very hard to trace
   and look at the same time to the status bar, and keep the angle
   simultaneously.
   How to customize that code to get it and how to install in Arc Map ?

Thanks in advance for your kind answer 🙂

i think you can do it when you activate the draw tool.

setMapAction(DrawTool.MAPPOINT, "Tooltip text here", null, callbackFunction);

Olivier, the drawtool tips have already been localized into six languages.

Out-of-the-box we support English (en-US), German (de_DE), Spanish (es_ES), French (fr_FR), Japanese (ja_JP) and Chinese (zh_CN). For other languages please contact your local Esri distributor.

To use a specific language, simply compile with the appropriate locale. In Flash Builder, go to Project -> Properties -> Flex Compiler and under the "Additional compiler arguments" change "-locale en_US" to "-locale fr_FR".
