Creating a layer for Training Map

ChrisPolley — Fri, 02 Sep 2016 02:14:14 GMT

I'm looking to create a layer that will be used to place points( icons such as emergency responders will be placed) on a map for a table top scenario. When scenario is done and we are to refresh the browser or close the browser and reopen I don't want these points (Emergency icons ) saved. I thought I handle this before but I'm drawing a blank on how to create this.

Thank you.

Chris,

Are developing this map using the JS API or some other API?

I would like something for WAB or even Flex 3.7

Chris,

You could just use the WAB otb draw widget. If that does not meet your needs then developing a custom widget that use a graphics layer would be the route to go.

Yes, this is what I was coming to but I'm having difficulties on how to dig into the draw widget.

Chris,

What specifics do you need help with?

I suppose the source code and folders that hold the icons is what I need, I will need as point icons Emergency Respondes (Police, Fire, Ambulance) Excavators (backhoe, Augars) Resources (Buses, Barricades)

Chris,

If you would like to have a draw widget symbololgy set that are specific to you and your needs then several files need some edits/creation.

The symbols that are available in the draw widget come from 10 json files that specify the symbols in json format

[install dir]\server\apps\[app#]\jimu.js\dijit\SymbolsInfo.

The json files then contain (minified) symbols:

The imageData above is the Base64 encoded string of the image file (online utility website for that Base64 Decode and Encode - Online )

So you would create a new 11.json file and add symbol code like above in an array (so you will need your images you will be using to be hosted on a web server).

Then in the [install dir]\server\apps\[app#]\jimu.js\dijit\templates\SymbolChooser.html you would add your new 11.json to the list (line 31 below):

<div style="width:320px;">
     <div class="symbol-section point-symbol-section" data-dojo-attach-point="pointSection">

That's it now you have a custom symbol set in your apps draw widget that you can use.

Yes, I will. By the way do you by chance have the PrintPlus Widget by Larry? The link seems to be down.

Re: Creating a layer for Training Map

RobertScheitlin__GISP — Tue, 06 Sep 2016 19:20:45 GMT

Chris,

Sure Here it is (btw. the reason it is likely down is that the developer no longer works there, and this widget is no longer supported).

I'm sorry, I don't see the file to download.
