start(SketchCreationMode)
.
An existing geometry can be modified using start(Geometry)
, start(Geometry, SketchCreationMode)
or
replaceGeometry(Geometry)
.
During a sketch session, a geometry can be modified by moving or deleting the vertices or parts interactively.
A sketch editor must be set on the map view MapView.setSketchEditor(SketchEditor)
before calling the start
methods, otherwise a runtime exception IllegalStateException
will be thrown.
The stop()
method needs to be called to finish the current sketch editing session.
Interactions:
-
Using Mouse:
- Left-click - on a vertex to select it; on geometry's outline to select geometry; otherwise, to draw.
- Left-press and drag - on a vertex to move a vertex; on geometry's outline to move geometry; otherwise to draw in freehand mode.
- Right-click - to show a context menu with option to clear the vertex or geometry.
-
Using Touch:
- Touch and release - on a vertex to select it; on geometry's outline to select geometry; otherwise, to add a vertex.
- Touch and move - on a vertex to move a vertex; on geometry's outline to move geometry; otherwise to draw in freehand mode.
- Touch and hold briefly - on a vertex or outline to show a context menu with option to clear the vertex or geometry.
