Re: [udig-devel] Moving Geometries
|
That sounds like an interesting application.
A couple quick things:
- I am sure you found a bug :-)
- What version are you using right now for your development work
- I recommend making a custom "irrigation tool" when the time comes (which knows something about your domain (perhaps it can snap to pipe joins or something? It is very nice to even just repurpose the edit geometry tool with a custom cursor). You can look into changing the workflow so that dragging the line work allows you to move the entire geometry; and grabbing a point allows you to just move a point
- Try the advanced mode of the edit tools (set in preferences and restart I think). The edit geometry tool has a better experience here (you can add and create points without changing tools for example)
- I have some (very long) documentation on the edit tool framework in the developers guide. Their is also an example of a custom edit tool in the tutorials folder which may be of assistance.

Hi all,
I've been developing an app to help
farmers administor their farms based on udig (currently on 1.2m2). The
users will need to be able to move geometries around (eg irrigation systems).
I am having issues moving the geometries. The only way I can see to move
geometries is to use Edit Geometry tool. Click to select, then draw a box
around the points then click and drag to move it.
The issue I'm having is that the tool
just drops a point here and there (seemingly randomly) while dragging,
resulting in a disfigured shape with points randomly placed across the
map. Is this a bug in the tool? Is there another way to move geometries?
Thanks for any advice
Luke
