Move polyline or polygon geometry to a new centroid

I want to move polyline geometry to a new point programmatically.

variable p is a new point where I want to move singlePathPolyline.

Is there any way out?

I have seen geoUtil which contains following functions

geoUtil.moveGeometry = function (geometry, distance, angle) {
    var isWebMercator = geometry.spatialReference.isWebMercator();
    var geometry = isWebMercator ? geometry : webMercatorUtils.geographicToWebMercator(geometry);
    var newGeometry;
    switch (geometry.type) {
      case "point":
        newGeometry = this._movePoint(geometry, distance, angle);
        break;
      case "polyline":
        newGeometry = this._movePolygon(geometry, geometry.paths, distance, angle);
        break;
      case "polygon":
        newGeometry = this._movePolygon(geometry, geometry.rings, distance, angle);
        break;
    }
    return isWebMercator ? newGeometry : webMercatorUtils.webMercatorToGeographic(newGeometry);
  };

  /**
   * Move a point geometry by a distance and angle
   * @param {Point} point - The Point geometry to move
   * @param {Number} distance - The distance to move the geometry in meters
   * @param {Number} angle - The angle to move the geometry by
   * @returns {Point}
   * @private
   */
  geoUtil._movePoint = function (point, distance, angle) {
    var radians = angle * (Math.PI / 180); // Convert angle to radians
    var newX = point.x + distance * Math.cos(radians); // calc new X
    var newY = point.y + distance * Math.sin(radians); // calc new Y
    var deltaX = newX - point.x;
    var deltaY = newY - point.y;
    return point.offset(deltaX, deltaY);
  };

  /**
   * Move a polygon geometry by a distance and angle
   * @param {Polygon} polygon - The Polygon geometry to move
   * @param {Number[][][]} Rings An array of rings
   * @param {Number} distance - The distance to move the geometry in meters
   * @param {Number} angle - The angle to move the geometry by
   * @returns {Polygon}
   * @private
   */
  geoUtil._movePolygon = function (geometry, rings, distance, angle) {
    for (var ringIndex = 0; ringIndex < rings.length; ringIndex++) {
      var ring = rings[ringIndex];
      for (var pointIndex = 0; pointIndex < ring.length; pointIndex++) {
        var ringPoint = geometry.getPoint(ringIndex, pointIndex);
        geometry.setPoint(ringIndex, pointIndex, this._movePoint(ringPoint, distance, angle));
      }
    }
    return geometry;
  };‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

They accept distance and angle. In my case I have a point. I tried to calculate angle and distance but no avail.

Is there any other way out?

Abdul,

What you are missing is origin location to move from. You have a polyline which you want to move to a new location point P. But you need to determine, how you want the line to move. Should the centroid of polyline be on the P or the start point or the end point. Once you have defined that, you will have 2 point and then you can calculate the distance between the points and the angle of the line between the points.

Hope this was helpful.

you might take a peek at how the old 3.x draw widget did it. Once a feature was drawn you could select it and drag it anywhere. I never considered how it did that.

I want to move it from centroid that can be calculated as:

singlePathPolyline.getExtent().getCenter();‍‍‍‍‍

What function do you use to calculate distance? I can not use GeometricEngine for distance calculation for some reasons.

I used this in conjunction with GeoUtil (code pasted above) but it did not worked well.

function Haversine(lat1, long1, lat2, long2) {

  var _eQuatorialEarthRadius = 6378.1370;
  var _d2r = (Math.PI / 180.0);

    var dlong = (long2 - long1) * _d2r;
    var dlat = (lat2 - lat1) * _d2r;
    var a = Math.pow(Math.sin(dlat / 2.0), 2.0) + Math.cos(lat1 * _d2r) * Math.cos(lat2 * _d2r) * Math.pow(Math.sin(dlong / 2.0), 2.0);
    var c = 2.0 * Math.atan2(Math.sqrt(a), Math.sqrt(1.0 - a));
    var d = _eQuatorialEarthRadius * c;

    return d;
}‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Any idea? Any snippet?

I think that was implemented using Editor class with user intervention not programmatically.

Abdul,

I find that you are using return point.offset(deltaX, deltaY) to move the point. So you don't need to calculate the distance and angle. Since what you need is deltaX and deltaY. you can get them as below.

deltaX = targetPoint.X - sourcePoint.X;
deltaY = targetPoint.Y - sourcePoint.Y;

Hope this was helpful.

It is, but it's hard to keep secrets in JavaScript ; )

I need to bust it open this week for a client that doesn't want to wait for the 4.x port. I'll let you know what I find.

I solved it by porting this code

GitHub - bramus/google-maps-polygon-moveto: Programmatically move a google.maps.Polygon to a new google.maps.LatLng usin… and its site Google Maps v3 Move Polygon | Bram.us

Thanks for the participation

+1 for hard to keep secrets in JavaScript ; )
