What is the DAML control id for "Toggle Fixed Cursor Mode"?

As this command is not in the ribbon, I don't know how I can get the id. I assumed that it is "esri_datasourcesraster_toggleFixedCursorModeButton", but it isn't.

Toggle Fixed Cursor Mode is used for stereo mapping.

Hi,

Try "esri_datasourcesraster_stereoCursorModeFixed". Module id="esri_datasourcesraster".

Hi,

thank you for your reply! Unfortunately, this doesn't work. The following method returns null:

FrameworkApplication.GetPlugInWrapper("esri_datasourcesraster_stereoCursorModeFixed");

Sorry. it was commented out in daml. Maybe it was implemented in earlier versions.

To handle cursor in stereo mapping you need to use keyboard key '~'.

Tilde (~)

Temporarily turn off fixed pointer mode.

This turns off the fixed pointer mode to allow you to perform other tasks. To return to the fixed pointer mode, press the Tilde key again.

Note:

There is no need to press the Shift key.

This shortcut applies to United States standard keyboards. Other types of keyboards may have a different character on the key. For detailed information, verify which key the VK_OEM_3 (Microsoft virtual key code) is mapped to for your keyboard.

So, you can try to simulate keyboard pressing.
