Sketch

With the sketch element, temporary geometries can be created. These sketches are not saved within a database and will be lost after restart of the application. Sketches can be printed out.

The following geometry types can be sketched:

  • Point

  • Line

  • Polygon

  • Rectangle

  • Circle

  • Text

Configuration

../../../_images/sketch_configuration1.png

  • Auto activate The element is activated automatically.

  • Deactivate on close Sketches are deactivated after closure of the element.

  • Title: Title of the elements. This is referenced by the button which opens the element.

  • Target: ID of the map-element, to which the Redlining refers.

  • Geometrytypes Lists all geometrytypes

Draw geometries

Point drawing can be activated/deactivated via click on the button “point”. Points are set via a single click on the map.

Line drawing can be activated/deactivated via click on the button “line”. Line segments are set via a single click on the map. To finish drawing make a double click.

Polygon drawing can be activated/deactivated via click on the button “polygon”. Corner points are set via a single click on the map. To finish drawing make a double click.

Rectangle drawing can be activated/deactivated via click on the button “rectangle”. Rectangles are drawn via drag and drop.

Circles drawing can be activated/deactivated via a click on the button “circle”. Circles are drawn via drag and drop.

YAML-Definition:

This code can be used to implement the element in a yaml-application.
