Class SketchEditor


  • public final class SketchEditor
    extends Object
    Represents a sketch editor that allows users to interactively sketch geometries on the map view. Different geometry types can be sketched from scratch such as point, multipoint, polyline, or polygon by starting the SketchEditor with the corresponding SketchCreationMode, see 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
      • Right-click - to show a context menu with option to clear the vertex or geometry
    • Using Touch:
      • Touch - on a vertex or outline to show a context menu with option to clear the vertex or geometry; otherwise, to draw
      • Press for 500ms and drag - on a vertex to move a vertex; on geometry's outline to move geometry
