esri/views/draw/MultipointDrawAction
This class uses the view events to generate a set of coordinates to create a new Multipoint geometry using Draw. When the draw.create("multipoint") method is called, a reference to MultipointDrawAction is returned. You can listen to events on the MultipointDrawAction instance, which allows users to create a multipoint that meets criteria specified by the application.
Known Limitations
Currently the MultipointDrawAction is only supported in a MapView.
function enableCreateMultipoint(draw, view) {
let action = draw.create("multipoint");
// Give a visual feedback to users as they move the pointer over the view
action.on("cursor-update", function (evt) {
createMultipointGraphic(evt.vertices);
});
// Fires when the user clicks, or presses the "F" key on the view
// Can also fire when the "R" key is pressed to redo.
action.on("vertex-add", function (evt) {
createMultipointGraphic(evt.vertices);
});
// Fires when the "Z" key is pressed to undo the last added point
action.on("vertex-remove", function (evt) {
createMultipointGraphic(evt.vertices);
});
// Create a point when user clicks on the view or presses the "Enter" key.
action.on("draw-complete", function (evt) {
createMultipointGraphic(evt.vertices);
});
}
function createMultipointGraphic(vertices) {
view.graphics.removeAll();
let multipoint = new Multipoint({
points: vertices,
spatialReference: view.spatialReference
});
graphic = new Graphic({
geometry: multipoint,
symbol: {
type: "simple-marker",
style: "square",
color: "red",
size: "16px",
outline: {
color: [255, 255, 0],
width: 3
}
}
});
view.graphics.add(graphic);
}

Method Details

addHandles(handleOrHandles, groupKey)inheritedSince: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.25
-
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();
ParametershandleOrHandles WatchHandle|WatchHandle[]Handles marked for removal once the object is destroyed.
groupKey *optionalKey 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.
-
Indicates if the redo() method can be called on the action instance.
ReturnsType Description Boolean Returns true
if the redo() method can be called.
-
Indicates if the undo() method can be called on the action instance.
ReturnsType Description Boolean Returns true
if the undo() method can be called.
-
complete()
-
Completes drawing the multipoint geometry and fires the draw-complete event. Call this method if the drawing logic needs to be completed other than by double-clicking or pressing the "Enter" key.
-
Emits an event on the instance. This method should only be used when creating subclasses of this class.
Parameterstype StringThe name of the event.
event ObjectoptionalThe event payload.
ReturnsType Description Boolean true
if a listener was notified

Maps the given screen point to a map point.
ParameterscreenPoint ScreenPointThe location on the screen.

if the screen point could not be mapped.
-
Maps the given screen point to a map point.
ParameterscreenPoint ScreenPointThe location on the screen.
ReturnsType Description Number[] | null Array of x,y and z component (if hasZ is enabled) of the point associated with the given screen point or null
if screen point could not be mapped.

-
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.25
-
Returns true if a named group of handles exist.
ParametergroupKey *optionalA group key.
ReturnsType 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"); }

Registers an event handler on the instance. Call this method to hook an event with a listener.
ParametersAn event or an array of events to listen for.
listener FunctionThe function to call when the event fires.
ReturnsType Description Object Returns an event handler with a remove()
method that should be called to stop listening for the event(s).Property Type Description remove Function When called, removes the listener from the event. Exampleview.on("click", function(event){ // event is the event handle returned after the event fires. console.log(event.mapPoint); });
-
redo()inherited
-
Incrementally redo actions recorded in the stack. Call canRedo() prior to calling this method to check if this method can be called on the action instance. Calling this method will fire the vertex-add or vertex-remove events depending on the last action.
Exampleif (action.canRedo()) { action.redo(); }
-
removeHandles(groupKey)inheritedSince: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.25
-
Removes a group of handles owned by the object.
