DimensionAnalysis enables the creation and display of measurement annotations for lengths and distances in a 3D SceneView.

The analysis can contain multiple dimensions. These can be created interactively or programmatically, and the analysis can be added directly to either SceneView.analyses or to the DimensionLayer.source in a SceneView.map.

// create analysis with dimensions
const dimensionAnalysis = new DimensionAnalysis({
   dimensions: [
     new LengthDimension({
       startPoint: new Point({ }),
       endPoint: new Point({ })
     })
   ],
   style: new DimensionSimpleStyle({
     color: "white"
   }),
});
// add the analysis to the view
view.analyses.push(dimensionAnalysis);

Use the DimensionAnalysisView to retrieve the analysis results.

// retrieve measured results from analysis view
view.whenAnalysisView(dimensionAnalysis).then(dimensionAnalysisView => {
  const results = dimensionAnalysisView.results;
});

To start adding length dimensions interactively to the analysis, use the DimensionAnalysisView.createLengthDimensions() method.

view.whenAnalysisView(dimensionAnalysis).then(dimensionAnalysisView => {
  dimensionAnalysisView.createLengthDimensions();
});

DimensionAnalysis can only be saved to a WebScene or added to Slides as part of a DimensionLayer.

Known Limitations

  • DimensionAnalysis is only supported in a 3D SceneView.

Method Details

addHandles

Inherited
Method
addHandles(handleOrHandles, groupKey)
Inherited from Accessor

Adds one or more handles which are to be tied to the lifecycle of the object. The handles will be removed when the object is destroyed.

// Manually manage handles
const handle = reactiveUtils.when(
  () => !view.updating,
  () => {
    wkidSelect.disabled = false;
  },
  { once: true }
);

this.addHandles(handle);

// Destroy the object
this.destroy();
Parameters
handleOrHandles WatchHandle|WatchHandle[]

Handles marked for removal once the object is destroyed.

groupKey *
optional

Key identifying the group to which the handles should be added. All the handles in the group can later be removed with Accessor.removeHandles(). If no key is provided the handles are added to a default group.

clone

Method
clone(){this}

Creates a deep clone of this object. Any properties that store values by reference will be assigned copies of the referenced values on the cloned instance.

Returns
Type Description
this A deep clone of the class instance that invoked this method.

hasHandles

Inherited
Method
hasHandles(groupKey){Boolean}
Inherited from Accessor

Returns true if a named group of handles exist.

Parameter
groupKey *
optional

A group key.

Returns
Type Description
Boolean Returns true if a named group of handles exist.
Example
// Remove a named group of handles if they exist.
if (obj.hasHandles("watch-view-updates")) {
  obj.removeHandles("watch-view-updates");
}

removeHandles

Inherited
Method
removeHandles(groupKey)
Inherited from Accessor

Removes a group of handles owned by the object.

Parameter
groupKey *
optional

A group key or an array or collection of group keys to remove.

Example
obj.removeHandles(); // removes handles from default group

obj.removeHandles("handle-group");
obj.removeHandles("other-handle-group");
