Hiding a div in a widget

Anonymous User — Tue, 19 Jan 2021 23:16:40 GMT

I am trying to hide a div in my Measurement widget but my attempts have resulted in breaking the widget entirely. I have a div distanceMeasure and I want to hide it. How do I do it? Where does the code go in the widget.js file?

What do you mean it breaks the widget? What code are you using to hide that div?

Hi @Anonymous User

If you could attach your code, it would be easier for us to assist.

Generically speaking, if you had a div with id "distanceMeasure" declared in your html, you can hide the div like this in JS:

var selectedDiv = dojo.byId(divId); if(selectedDiv) { selectedDiv.style.display = "none"; }

to show the same div, you can then call:

selectedDiv.style.display = "block";

Hope that helps.
