Remove graphics which created by a widget when widget being closed

TubaKumbara — Fri, 02 Feb 2018 06:55:18 GMT

Hello.

Added DirectLineMeasurement3D widget in to sceneview.

I have a toggle widget button. And button code below

mySceneview.ui.remove(measureWidget);

This is removing widget from sceneview but drawings stays on screen. I can't clear all graphics because of sceneview has another graphics.

How can i remove graphics which created by a widget when widget being closed?

Thanks inadvance

If u use graphicslayer. is graphicslayer.clear();

if u use map.graphics is map.graphics.clear();

if u use layers, map.removeAllLayers() for all of them or removeLayer(urLayer) to remove the desired layers that u added in the map.

I hope this helps.

Tuba,

It has not been documented but there is a clearMeasurement method.

measureWidget.clearMeasurement();‍

Thanks for the answer.

yes widget.clearMeasurement is solved problem.

But

Mouse cursor still displaying as "plus" figure (as if widget is opened) and still continuing drawing measure graphic even after close and clear widget.

And another question,

Can we get a list for added widgets?

Thanks inadvance

Tuba,

Then you need to destroy the widget as well:

measureWidget.clearMeasurement();
view.ui.remove(measureWidget);
measureWidget.destroy();‍‍‍

For your second question look here:
