Create a tool to split rectangles

UtkarshSharma — Tue, 10 Apr 2018 04:48:54 GMT

Hi,

I want to create a tool which splits rectangles on the basis of clicks.

In the below rectangle, x denotes the click location.

|-----------------------------|

| x |

|-----------------------------|

Output:

|------ |----------------------|

| | |

|-------|----------------------|

I'm completely new to ArcGIS Pro SDK, so would like to know whether it is even possible to create a tool with such functionality.

If it is possible, I will be very grateful if someone can guide me on how to proceed with creating such a tool.

Have you seen the ArcGIS Pro SDK documentation?

Yes, but going through the available tutorials only provides an introductory overview of the ArcGIS Pro SDK. I was hoping that someone with experience will point me to the relevant parts of the SDK for implementing the said functionality.

Hi Sarthak,

Please check out this sample,

https://github.com/Esri/arcgis-pro-sdk-community-samples/tree/master/Editing/SketchToolDemo

This sample demonstrates a 'cut' tool that allows an editor to sketch a line over a set of existing features, if a polygon is intersected by the sketch line, the polygon will be cut by the sketched line.

Thanks

Uma

Thanks for the sample, going through the sample code provided a good overview of some of the functionalities in the SDK. Few follow-up questions:

- Is it possible to access the edges of the polygon which were intersected by the line geometry?

- Can we also obtain length of the edges of polygon geometry?

- Can the line geometry be translated by a certain distance (the translated line will be parallel to the original line)?
