How to programmatically activate the edit tools in arcpro sdk

[Gurunara]

would like to activate:

1) Create feature

2) Modify feature, and in particular the Move option

3) Delete feature

tools under the Edit tab, programmatically for a specific feature layer, and subscribe to the edit completion events.

Is this possible in arcpro sdk?

Hi,

Use GetPlugInWrapper Method—ArcGIS Pro. To find tool reference id move mouse over the tool.

Works...

is there a way to programmatically select a template once the Create Feature tool is activated?

I think, you can't select template directly from Create Features pane. But your workflow could be like in sample below:

        protected async override void OnClick()
        {
            await QueuedTask.Run(() =>
            {
               // Find layer you will work with
                var featLayer = MapView.Active.Map.FindLayers("Poly1").First();
                // Get all templates and then select template you need or use GetTemplate if you know template name
                var editTemplates = featLayer.GetTemplates();

                if (editTemplates != null && editTemplates.Count > 0)
                {
                    var editTemplate = editTemplates[0];
                    // Activate default tool
                    editTemplate.ActivateDefaultToolAsync();
                }
            });
        }
