How to add markers to area polygon in Measurement tool

PaulBelew — Mon, 17 Apr 2017 15:21:58 GMT

I'm using dijit Measurement tool:

var fillSymbol = new SimpleFillSymbol(SimpleFillSymbol.STYLE_SOLID, new SimpleLineSymbol(SimpleLineSymbol.STYLE_SOLID, new esri.Color([255, 167, 25, 0.9]), 4), new esri.Color([255, 167, 25, 0.25]));
var lineSymbol = new SimpleLineSymbol(SimpleLineSymbol.STYLE_SOLID, new esri.Color([255, 167, 25, 0.9]), 4);
var pointSymbol = new SimpleMarkerSymbol(SimpleMarkerSymbol.STYLE_SQUARE, 10, new SimpleLineSymbol(SimpleLineSymbol.STYLE_SOLID, new esri.Color([255, 255, 255, 0.9]), 2), new esri.Color([255, 167, 25, 0.9]))

       this._measure_tool = new esri.dijit.Measurement({
               map: this.map,
               defaultAreaUnit: esri.Units.SQUARE_METERS, defaultLengthUnit: esri.Units.METERS,
               fillSymbol: fillSymbol, lineSymbol: lineSymbol, pointSymbol: pointSymbol
           }
               , constr.create("div"));
       this._measure_tool.startup();

When I draw a line to measure distance pointSymbol markers are appears at line points but its visible under the lines.

How can I make markers be above the lines?

When I draw a polygon to measure area markers is not visible.

How can I make markers visible on polygon figure?

I'm using version 3.20.

The default experience for the widget is to display the measurement distance on the widget. Based on your image it looks like you are adding a tooltip. Is this correct? If so can you share the code you are using - that might help us give you advice on displaying the units correctly.

Here's a test app that shows the default behavior.

Thank you.

As I see the example is working in the same manner. If you can modify your example to show markers on polygon figure then I can do the same.

Paul,

As the widget is not designed for that you would have to add code to accomplish that. Here is a sample that does that:
