Doubts about MIl 2525c Symbology

Bhargav_KumarK

I am working on sample Advanced Symbology->Symbol Dictionary given in Arc GIS Qt Samples. As given in the sample we are able to draw symbols, move the symbol(using the call EsriRuntimeQt::MessageHelper::createUpdateMessage) but I am not able to select the symbol which I drawn on map.

In the documentation I found out that in order to select symbol I can use function

static Message EsriRuntimeQt::MessageHelper::createSelectMessage    (    const SymbolDictionaryType &     type,

const QString &     messageId,

const QString &     messageType,

const bool &     highlight

)   

How to use this function in order to achieve selection of symbol?

Bhargav-

There seems to be a bug in our select method, which is setting the "_action" property incorrectly. Luckily, there is a workaround.

Can you try something like:

Message selectMsg = MessageHelper::createSelectMessage(SymbolDictionaryType::Mil2525C, “message_id”, “position_report", true);
selectMsg.setProperty(“_action”, “select”);  // set _action property to “select” or “un-select”

m_groupLayer->messageProcessor()->processMessage( selectMsg ); // process select message
