ArcGIS Runtime Toolkit for Qt v100.14 is live!

[Anonymous User]

Alongside the release of the Qt ArcGIS Runtime 100.14.0 SDK, I am excited to announce an update to our Qt open-source toolkit.

Many new features and bugfixes have their way into this release (including enhancements to the Calcite QML style.) There is more here than can neatly fit into a blog, so take a look at the CHANGELOG.md for full details!

FloorFilter

Using the FloorManager API built into ArcGISRuntime we have created an out-of-the-box solution for floor filtering. This FloorFilter tool is very easy to set up, and is highly configurable.

The code to add FloorFilter to your QML Quick application would look like so:

MapView {
    id: viewMap
    Map {
        initUrl: "<FloorAware Map URL>"
    }
    FloorFilter {
        geoView: parent
        anchors {
          left: parent.left
          margins: 10
          top: parent.top
        }
    }
}

Callout rewrite

I'm pleased to say that Callout has been rewritten to take advantage of modern QML features.

Callout's public API has not changed, but internally  we take advantage of inheriting from Control, and rendering using QML Shapes. This has solved some known rendering bugs on older devices, and makes Callout more compliant with the sizing and styling expectations of the QML ecosystem.

Callout now respects your app's style settings:

Callout Calcite light theme

Callout Calcite dark theme

We have also provided in the documentation a way to revert back to "old-style" if required:

Callout {
    calloutData: myCalloutData
    titleTextColor: "#000000"
    backgroundColor: "#ffffff"
    borderColor: "#000000"
    borderWidth: 2
    cornerRadius: 5
    leaderHeight: 10
    leaderWidth: 20
    leaderPosition: Callout.LeaderPosition.Bottom
}

Callout old-style

We hope you enjoy the new release! Let us know what you're building with it.
