create line graphic in WAB

[TerryGustafson]

I'm wondering if anyone has generated a simpleLine Symbol in WAB.  I'm wanting to pass a start and end location offset and return a line symbol from the entered values.  does anyone know of an example out there to look at?

TIA

Do you think I should draw the feature if they enter an invalid from or to point?

renderResult: function (result) {
                console.info(result);

                var locError = result.value.features[0].attributes.LOC_ERROR


                if (locError === "No ERROR") {
                    draw it
                } else if (locError === "ROUTE NOT FOUND") {
                    return message "Invlaid Corridor name please re-enter"
                } else if (locError === "PARTIAL MATCH FOR THE FROM-MEASURE") {
                    return message "Invlaid Beggining Accum. Mileage please re-enter"
                } else if (locError === "PARTIAL MATCH FOR THE TO-MEASURE") {
                    return message "Invlaid Ending Accum. Mileage please re-enter"
                }


                var allFeatures = [];
                var lineSymbol = new SimpleLineSymbol(SimpleLineSymbol.STYLE_SOLID, new Color([255, 255, 0, 0.9]), 8);
                if (result.dataType === "GPFeatureRecordSetLayer") {
                    var features = result.value && result.value.features;
                    if (features && features.length > 0) {
                        array.forEach(features, lang.hitch(this, function (feat) {
                            allFeatures = allFeatures.concat(feat);
                            feat.setSymbol(lineSymbol);
                            this.map.graphics.add(feat);
                        }));
                    }
                }
                //
                this.shelter.hide();

Terry,

  That is really up to you. I personally would, but report back the correct value. Like if I enter

Corridor: C000001E

Begin: 0

End: 1800

Return:

Loc_Error: "PARTIAL MATCH FOR THE TO-MEASURE"

Shape_Length: 1609430.9492044426

So I would provide a message like: "Corridor: C000001E length is only 1609430.9492044426".

You can use the message dijit just require: 'jimu/dijit/Message'

and call it like this:

              new Message({
                titleLabel: "Title",
                message: "Some message"
              });

Will the new Message return a popup displaying the title and message?

[RobertScheitlin__GISP]

yes

Good Morning Robert,

How do I return to the function when one of my “else” statements fails? After thinking about it I don’t want to draw an incorrect segment.

else if (locError === "ROUTE NOT FOUND") {

return new Message({

titleLabel: "Data Entry Error",

message: "Invalid Corridor name please re-enter"

});

I think it would go here after the ok is clicked from the return newMessage

}

Terry,

  Here is some example code for doing something based on a message dialog button(s) being clicked:

          var qMessage = new Message({
            type: 'question',
            titleLabel: this.nls.spatialchoicetitle,
            message: this.nls.spatialchoicemsg,
            buttons: [{
              label: this.nls.buffergraphics,
              onClick: lang.hitch(this, lang.hitch(this, function () {
                qMessage.close();
                var g = this.graphicsLayerBuffer.graphics[0];
                intersectGeom = g.geometry;
                this.search(intersectGeom, this.spatialLayerIndex, null, null, dataSpatialType);
              }))
            }, {
              label: this.nls.selectiongraphics,
              onClick: lang.hitch(this, lang.hitch(this, function () {
                qMessage.close();
                intersectGeom = this.unionGeoms(this.currentLayerAdded.graphics);
                this.search(intersectGeom, this.spatialLayerIndex, null, null, dataSpatialType);
              }))
            }]
          });

Ok, I got to work for the validation of my return route segment widget. I wanted to add the following validation to my get location from coordinate widget. But the onClick does not seem to close the function. Any ideas?

_onlatlongClicked: function () {

GLOBE.wkid = 4326;

if (this.LatTextBox.value) {

if ((!isNaN(this.LatTextBox.value) && !isNaN(this.LongTextBox.value))) {

var Lat = this.LatTextBox.value,

Long = this.LongTextBox.value,

LocPoint = new Point(Long, Lat),

mp = {

mapPoint: LocPoint

};

} else {

var qMessage = new Message({

type: 'Error',

titleLabel: "Invalid Corrdinate",

message: "Please re-enter valid valid coordinate",

button: [{

label: "Data Entry Error",

onClick: lang.hitch(this, lang.hitch(this, function () {

qMessage.close();

}))

}]

});

}

Robert,

Ok, I have my validation to ensure the coordinates that are entered are numbers. I was also going to validate that the created point was located in Montana. Do you know of a function for something like this?

I found this and thought it might work. What are your thoughts?

if( bb.ix <= p.x && p.x <= bb.ax && bb.iy <= p.y && p.y <= bb.ay ) {

// Point is in bounding box

}

Else {

//return error message “out of Montana”

}

bb is the bounding box, (ix,iy) are its top-left coordinates, and (ax,ay) its bottom-right coordinates. p is the point and (x,y) its coordinates.

Terry,

   You need to get more familiar with the JS API. The extent and polygon objects have a contains function that you should use for this.
