Showing Selection Rectangle

RussellSuter — Fri, 05 May 2023 15:10:47 GMT

Hi all,

I'm currently running ArcGIS Pro 3.0.2.

When I use the rectangle "Select" tool in the Maps tab, a rectangle is continuously displayed and when the pointer is in the area, there are resize boxes available:

How do I get this box in my custom tool? My code is:

internal class SelectByRectangleMapTool : MapTool { public SelectByRectangleMapTool() { IsSketchTool = true; CompleteSketchOnMouseUp = true; SketchType = SketchGeometryType.Rectangle; SketchOutputMode = SketchOutputMode.Map; } protected override Task OnToolActivateAsync(bool active) { return base.OnToolActivateAsync(active); } protected override Task<bool> OnSketchCompleteAsync(Geometry geometry) { return QueuedTask.Run(() => { ActiveMapView.SelectFeatures(geometry); return true; }); } }

I've tried a few resources like IsWYSIWG with no joy. Any help is appreciated.

Just to clarify: This behavior requires the following options setting in ArcGIS Pro:

I was not able to get this to work either, i passed the question on to team. I will let you know what we find.

Is this possibly an implementation of an OverlayControl?
