Thanks for the quick reply.
Unfortunately its not working. The tool is not loaded. I tried with another esri-tool which works.
I added my tool to the daml as follows based on the tool defined here:

This is the Tool I just placed between our usual code. This also is copied from the sample mentioned above but just renamed and relocated in namespace:
namespace MyProject
{
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using ArcGIS.Core.Data;
using ArcGIS.Core.Geometry;
using ArcGIS.Desktop.Framework.Threading.Tasks;
using ArcGIS.Desktop.Mapping;
public class CoordinatesByRectangleMapTool : MapTool
{
public CoordinatesByRectangleMapTool()
{
IsSketchTool = true;
SketchType = SketchGeometryType.Rectangle;
SketchOutputMode = SketchOutputMode.Screen;
}
protected override Task OnToolActivateAsync(bool active)
{
return base.OnToolActivateAsync(active);
}
protected override async Task<bool> OnSketchCompleteAsync(Geometry geometry)
{
var mv = MapView.Active;
await QueuedTask.Run(() =>
{
// Get the features that intersect the sketch geometry.
// getFeatures returns a dictionary of featurelayer and a list of Object ids for each
Dictionary<BasicFeatureLayer, List<long>> featuresObjectIds = mv.GetFeatures(geometry);
// go through all feature layers and do a spatial query to find features
foreach (var featOids in featuresObjectIds)
{
var featLyr = featOids.Key;
var qf = new QueryFilter() { ObjectIDs = featOids.Value };
var rowCursor = featLyr.Search(qf);
while (rowCursor.MoveNext())
{
using (var feat = rowCursor.Current as Feature)
{
var listOID = new List<long> { feat.GetObjectID() };
var displayExp = String.Join(Environment.NewLine, featLyr.QueryDisplayExpressions(listOID.ToArray()));
//Module1.MapToolIdentifyDockpaneVM.AddToListOfFeatures($@"Layer: {featLyr.Name} obj id: {feat.GetObjectID()} Display Expression: {displayExp}");
//Access all field values
var count = feat.GetFields().Count();
for (int i = 0; i < count; i++)
{
var val = feat[i];
//TODO use the value(s)
}
}
}
}
});
return true;
}
}
}
The usercontrol contains a button where the command is declared as follows:
this.CoordinatedByRectangleCommand = new GenericCommand(this.CoordinatedByRectangle);
The method then tries the following code, which a copied from the sample mentioned in this thread:
https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-sdk-questions/how-do-i-activate-deactivate-a-maptool/td-p/8...
private void CoordinatedByRectangle()
{
//CurrentTool is esri map explore
var currentTool = FrameworkApplication.CurrentTool;
var activeTool = FrameworkApplication.ActiveTool;
//First approach
var task = FrameworkApplication.SetCurrentToolAsync("MapToolIdentifyWithDockpane_MapToolIdentify");
x.Wait();
//CurrentTool still is esri map explore
currentTool = FrameworkApplication.CurrentTool;
activeTool = FrameworkApplication.ActiveTool;
//Second approach
ICommand ccmd = FrameworkApplication.GetPlugInWrapper("MapToolIdentifyWithDockpane_MapToolIdentify") as ICommand;
if ((ccmd != null) && ccmd.CanExecute(null)) // --> CanExecute results to false
ccmd.Execute(null);
//CurrentTool still is esri map explore
currentTool = FrameworkApplication.CurrentTool;
activeTool = FrameworkApplication.ActiveTool;
}
In the second approach I can see while debugging that CanExecute results to false.
There seems to be something wrong in the way I am doing.
The daml-ID seems to be correct, because in ccmd I can see the custom tooltip defined in the daml of the tool. So basically the tool can be found, but not executed.
When I exchange the daml-ID of my custom tool with another one from esri, like "esri_mapping_selectByRectangleTool", then the tool is changed and I directly can draw a selecting rectangle on the map.
Any idea whats wrong with my tool?
Thank you.
