Buffer and geomeotry service on 4.4

OliviaGill1 — Wed, 13 Sep 2017 15:35:41 GMT

I've started to use v.4.4 of the api today and I wondered if it's possible to use the draw and buffer or if you would suggest I stuck with 3.2 for now? I can't find an update for these functions on the new version sample code examples.Thanks

Olivia,

There is yet to be a draw toolbar in the 4.x API yet it is still coming soon.

The geometry service is unchanged, so you can use it to get buffers into 4.4, just like in 3.2. You can also do a client side buffer using the geometryEngine or geometryEngineAsync.

There's no draw tool in 4.4, but simple draw tools are coming in 4.5, which should be released before the end of the month.
